Monteris issued 3 separate advisories from October to December 2017 regarding unintended probe tip heating with the NeuroBlate System. However, FDA is concerned that information provided by the manufacturer had not sufficiently mitigated the risk of unintended heating.

What’s the Problem?

“Until appropriate mitigation strategies have been identified by the manufacturer and evaluated by the FDA, health care providers should strongly consider treating patients using alternative procedures if available,” FDA said. “The benefits and risks of the device, as well as the availability and benefits and risks of alternative treatment modalities, should be considered on an individual patient basis. Health care providers who do not believe there is a viable alternative should use the device with extreme caution.”

NeuroBlate Recall

The NeuroBlate Probe recall affects the following devices with product codes GEX and HAW:

  • SideFire 3.3 mm (SFP) Directional Laser Probe (sizes 000-5)
  • FullFire 3.3 mm DTP Diffusing Tip Laser Probe (sizes 000-5)
  • FullFire Select 2.2 mm Diffusing Tip Laser Probe (sizes 000-5)

FDA says a total of 52 probes are affected by the recall, 49 of which were sold in the U.S. The devices were manufactured from April 2013 to July 2017.

NeuroBlate Brain Damage

Monteris Medical issued a nationwide recall for the NeuroBlate probe and system on October 5, 2017. The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) designated it as a Class I Recall, after several reports surfaced of unintended heating and damage to the probe, which may have resulted in damage to surrounding brain tissue.
