Product

Without the need for additional insertion conduits (trocars), the 2.9mm insulated Shafts are inserted percutaneously with the assistance of an Introducer needle tool tip. The Shaft is then advanced retrograde through a 5mm, or larger, port to facilitate the extracorporeal attachment of interchangeable Tool Tips. These interchangeable tools can be used to grasp, retract, manipulate, cut, coagulate and deliver Hem-o-lok¿ ligating clips to soft tissue. Each Percuvance System Handle includes an integrated male cautery adapter that can be connected to most monopolar electrosurgical units (ESU) via a standard 4mm monopolar cable.

Reason

Teleflex is recalling these products because the jaws of the tool tip may break, causing a fragment of the tool tip to fall off during use.
