What happened

Boston Scientific Corporation is recalling Hurricane RX Dilation Balloons (4mm, 2cm) used for endoscopic procedures to widen strictures in the biliary tree and Sphincter of Oddi. The recall affects balloons distributed nationwide with specific lot numbers ranging from 25612668 through 27306699, with expiration dates between May 2022 and May 2023. The balloons are subject to recall because a pinhole defect can cause them to lose pressure or fail to gain or maintain pressure during use, which may result in prolonged procedures.

The product defect creates a potential safety concern for patients undergoing biliary and sphincter procedures. Consumers who have received one of the recalled balloons should check the product lot number and expiration date against those listed in the recall. The recall record does not specify a remedy or recommended course of action for affected consumers.
