Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

Not all biopsy tools meant to fit bronchoscope channel (2.1mm inner diameter/length greater or equal to 1100mm) will pass through if scope channel positioned in sharp bend (approx. greater than 100-deg.), excessive force may result in tissue injury/pneumothorax; instruments with long rigid distal sections may exhibit insertion resistance when bronchoscope bending section significantly articulated.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
