Reason

Upon implant deployment, the Capsular Tab may not be delivered as the needle is retracted. In this failure mode, the needle is deployed into the prostate and retracted, leaving no implant behind. Failure to deliver a capsular tab may result in a delay in completing a treatment or an inability to complete a treatment for the patient. Use of a recalled device may lead to increased frequency of exiting known risks associated with the product, including bleeding and tissue trauma associated with delivering the needle.
