Why it was recalled

It was reported that the SYNTHECEL Dura Repair could adhere to various anatomical structures post implantation, which may expose patients to potential risks in the event a surgeon intends to temporarily apply and subsequently remove a SYNTHECEL implant. SYNTHECEL Dura Repair labeling and promotional material are being updated to clarify that SYNTHECEL is intended to remain in place and is not intended to be removed.
