Event or Problem Description
Olympus was informed that at the beginning of a therapeutic anterior gland resection of the urethra procedure, it was noticed that an incorrect device had been ordered as a loaner device due to which the scheduled procedure had to be switched from a bipolar resection procedure (turis) to a monopolar resection procedure (turp).This resulted in the procedure being extended by 150 to 180 minutes.However, the procedure was successfully completed with the same set of equipment and there was no report about any patient injury.
