Issue

Olympus has initiated this recall after receiving complaints where the loop wire at the distal end of the HF resection electrode broke after getting in contact with metal objects, such as other endoscopic equipment, implants or stents. As a result, fragments can fall inside the patient and must be retrieved.

Recall start date: June 23, 2023.
