Myriad handpiece Tissue morcellator

Why was Myriad handpiece Tissue morcellator recalled?

This recall has been initiated due to a defective component within the handpiece which will cause the handpiece to fail. The failure will result in the inability to cut tissue with the handpiece, rendering it non-functional. Should this failure occur, a replacement Myriad handpiece will be required.
