    • Terminated Z-2767-2015 FDA Class II initiated 29 Jul 2015 on shared 510(k) K955168

    Two cables within the console were inadvertently twisted during manufacturing. The individual wires within the cables may break and/or contact one another where the cables terminate into two connectors. When these wires break or contact one another (i.e., short), various types of malfunction may occur with the console. One type of malfunction may result in unexpected aspiration increase.

    • Terminated Z-2045-2016 FDA Class II initiated 24 Feb 2014 on shared 510(k) K955168

    This recall has been initiated due to a defective component within the handpiece which will cause the handpiece to fail. The failure will result in the inability to cut tissue with the handpiece, rendering it non-functional. Should this failure occur, a replacement Myriad handpiece will be required. If a replacement handpiece is not available, alternate instrumentation for tissue removal will be necessary.
