- 8 Nov 2023 Z-0643-2024 Class II Ongoing The internal diameter of the coaxial cannula may be smaller or larger than the external diameter of the biopsy needle, and the length of the cannula may exceed the stated length on the label. As a result, the biopsy needle may not fit properly into the coaxial cannula, preventing access to the target tissue, which could lead to tissue injury, longer and repeat procedures.

prohibits the biopsy needle (cutting cannula) from properly fitting into the coaxial cannula and accessing
target tissue, which may lead to repeated procedure, and procedural complications, such as pain/discomfort, pneumothorax, and bleeding.
