Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

Coaxial cannula internal diameter and length of biopsy instruments exceed the external diameter and length of the biopsy needle, prohibiting the biopsy needle from properly fitting into the coaxial cannula and accessing the target tissue, which could lead to procedure delay, and insufficient sample acquisition requiring a repeat procedure.

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