  • Cause
    Boston scientific corporation has chosen to initiate a voluntary recall of all enteryx products. according to information of the company this action is related to the technique of the injection procedure and not to the safety and effectiveness of the product when properly implanted.
  • Action
    The company reports that it is collecting and analyzing an increasing number of data indicating that a transmural injection may occur despite the use of the fluoroscope throughout the procedure. Most transmural injections are recognized during the Enteryx procedure and or after the procedure through chest filming. He also reported that he was aware of 6 transmural injections that were not recognized during the procedure and immediately followed up. The most recent case involving a transmural injection resulted in a pleuropulmonary fistula. However, all these cases were recognized after 21 days of procedure. The possibility of a transmural injection through a vital organ is considered an unacceptable risk by Boston Scientific Corporation given the benign condition and other treatment options and as a result decided to collect the product from the market. If you have had any procedure with the Enteryx kit in the past month, we recommend that you follow up with your patient. Patients who had an unrecognized transmural injection had symptoms including epigastric pain, retrosternal pain (chest), respiratory tract infection (fever, cough, chest pain, difficulty breathing), pneumonia, syncopal episodes, and flank pain. If you feel that the presence of an unrecognized transmural injection needs to be evaluated, Boston Scientific Corporation will cover the additional costs of the imaging procedures required.
