Note last two paragraphs of article:
FDA did not ask Integra to recall the bovine matrix products but the company has recently issued a slew of recall notices about some of its other devices. According to FDA's
medical device recalls database, so far this year the agency has issued 29 recall notices about Integra LifeSciences products, compared to eight notices tied to the company across all of 2018 and three total in 2017.
The surge in the number of recall notices stems from problems with a range of total ankle prosthesis products. FDA issued 26 Class II recall notices related to ankle devices last month after learning Integra had listed an incorrect metallic coating material symbol on the labels of multiple products.
