Calaxo - A Permanent Screw

Calaxo screws were approved for use in the United States very recently — in March of 2006. They're used in the reconstruction of torn ACLs (anterior cruciate ligaments, in the knee). Thousands of patients have undergone surgery that used these permanently implanted knee surgery screws. The Calaxo screw is made of material that can be absorbed by the body, and thus it's not (supposed to be) necessary to remove a Calaxo screw once it's been placed in the leg.

Calaxo Screw Recall in the U.K.

However, as a Calaxo screw lawyer can tell you, in 2007 the British equivalent of the FDA announced a recall of Calaxo screws on the market in the U.K., based on reports of serious complications associated with its use. Patients were suffering serious Calaxo screw side effects including severe pain at the site of the screw, plus fever and swelling. Some patients had to have repeat surgery to fix the injury.
