Summary derived from FDA notice
Reason for Recall
As stated by FDA
Conductive Cannula Reducer metal tip may get dislodged from the plastic shaft. If unnoticed, additional surgery may be required to remove the metal tip. If the procedure proceeds without the metal tip, there is potential for energy leakage, which could cause tissue damage. If the metal tip remains in the patient, adhesions may form, which may lead to bowel obstruction and chronic abdominal pain.
