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
The Olympus URETERO-RENO FIBERSCOPE Model URF-P6 is being recalled due to incorrect adhesive used to secure the diopter ring and nameplate ring. An improperly connected diopter ring can result in loss of the adjustment function.
When adjustment function is lost, the device may exhibit a blurred field of vision. This can lead to unintended contact between the scope and the patient's body. In rare cases, this may result in perforation of the urinary tract or renal pelvis.
Two units have been identified and are distributed across California, Florida, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Ohio, Puerto Rico, and Wisconsin.
