  • Causa
    This recall has been initiated because in december of 2009 lina medical issued an update to their "instructions for use" (ifu) to inform users that the loops should not be pre-tested on patients nor be used if de-shaped from their original rhomboid form. doing so can cause the loop to weaken break or cease functioning and can prolong the surgery of the patient.
