Reason for recall
Under certain firing conditions, reloads were found to articulate in an uncontrolled manner potentially causing disruption to the staple line. The issue is related to components in impacted reloads that are not fully secure, which leads to uncontrolled articulation. The issue can occur using either the Endo GIA" Ultra Universal Stapler or Signia" Stapling System.
