## Product

da Vinci Xi and X 12-8 mm Conductive Cannula Reducer, REF: 470381-11

## Reason for recall

Conductive Cannula Reducer metal tip may get dislodged from the plastic shaft. If unnoticed, additional surgery may be required to remove the metal tip. If the procedure proceeds without the metal tip, there is potential for energy leakage, which could cause tissue damage.  If the metal tip remains in the patient, adhesions may form, which may lead to bowel obstruction and chronic abdominal pain.
