Event or Problem Description

Olympus was informed that during a therapeutic transcervical resection of the endometrium in saline (tcris) procedure, the patient sustained a perforation of the uterus.It is suspected that this injury was caused by excessive force applied on the resectoscope.The procedure was then converted to a laparoscopic procedure to treat the perforation.No further information was provided but none of the olympus medical devices showed any malfunction and the procedure was reportedly completed after the intervention.
