Bard Mission Disposable Core Biopsy Instrument Kit recall

Bard Mission Disposable Core Biopsy Instrument Kit: REF: 2010MSK, 20G x 10CM; REF: 2016MSK, 20G x 16CM

Why was Bard Mission Disposable Core Biopsy Instrument Kit recalled?

Coaxial cannula internal diameter and length of biopsy instruments exceed the external diameter and length of the biopsy needle, prohibiting the biopsy needle from properly fitting into the coaxial cannula and accessing the target tissue, which could lead to procedure delay, and insufficient sample acquisition requiring a repeat procedure.
