What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary
Procept Biorobotics Corporation is recalling 214 units of the AquaBeam Handpiece, a component of the AquaBeam Robotic System. The device is intended for use in patients suffering from lower urinary tract symptoms resulting from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The specific reference numbers involved are 310301 and 320301.
The recall is being conducted because certain lots of the handpiece may develop an internal leak due to a micro-crack in a specific weld joint. If this failure occurs, the robotic system detects the issue, renders the device inoperable, and notifies the user via an error message. This malfunction may cause a delay in the procedure or make it impossible to complete.
The affected units were distributed nationwide in the United States to Texas, Florida, Indiana, California, Illinois, Virginia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. They were also distributed internationally to Italy, Germany, France, Poland, the United Kingdom, Spain, Canada, and Australia. Domestic lots include 18C00681, 18C00770, 18C00852, and 18C01244, while foreign lots include 18C00799, 18C00844, 18C00985, 18C01024, 18C01044, and 18C01234. Healthcare providers should stop using the affected handpieces and contact the manufacturer for instructions on replacement or return.
