  • Action
    On 09/04/2009, the company ETHICON SAS has withdrawn from the market the batches having an expiry date between September 2013 and February 2014 of the references 6TB45, ATG45, NAW45, ATB45, ATW45, LONG45A of the medical device called endoscopic endoscopic staplers ENDOPATH ETS-FLEX45 Ethicon Endo-surgery. Indeed, as a result of several claims, Ethicon Endo-Surgery has identified that some of these products had a defect in the articulation of the jaws at the end of the axis. In some cases this defect leads to the impossibility of opening the jaws of the stapler after they have been closed on the tissues. When the jaws can not be re-opened, the necessary steps to remove the stapler can lengthen the surgical procedure by increasing the operating time, handling the tissues and modifying the technique first. The company ETHICON SAS has directly notified the recipients of the incriminated lots with the message attached (16/04/2009) (290 KB) validated by Afssaps. This information is addressed to the directors and correspondents of materiovigilance for diffusion if necessary to the services concerned. The relevant European Competent Authorities are informed of this measure by the manufacturer.
