Hysteroscopic myomectomy should not be undertaken without
adequate training, preceptorship, and clinical experience. The
following are clinical conditions that can significantly complicate
hysteroscopic myomectomy:
• Severe anemia
Inability to circumnavigate a myoma due to myoma size. (e.g.,
predominantly intramural myomas with small submucous
components).

• For use only by physicians trained in hysteroscopy.
Suspicion of pregnancy should suggest a pregnancy test
before the performance of diagnostic hysteroscopy.
1. Read these instructions thoroughly before using this
hardware.
2. Inspect the hardware for any damage that may have occurred
during shipment.
3. Test the hardware for functionality before using it in a surgical
procedure.
4. This hardware is shipped non-sterile. Clean and sterilize the
hardware prior to the first use and after every subsequent
use. Follow the cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization
instructions provided in this insert.
5. Read and understand monopolar-electrode and high-
frequency device manuals before use. Follow all warnings
and cautions during the operation of such devices.
6. Read and understand laser-delivery systems manuals before
use. Follow all warnings and cautions during the operation of
such devices.
7. Federal law (USA) restricts this device to use by or on order of
a physician.
8. Before every surgical procedure, inspect the resectoscope,
especially the ceramic tip and guiding element, for damage or
cracks. Do not use the device if it shows protrusions or rough
or sharp edges.
9. Do not reuse single-use monopolar electrodes with the
resectoscope. Physician and patient safety will be
compromised.
10. To maintain electrical isolation, use only Stryker electrodes
and resectoscope cables.
11. When urology hardware is used with other applied parts, total
patient current leakage may be additive. Ensure BF
conditions are observed when using the resectoscope with
electromedical devices.
12. For Continuous Flow Hysteroscopy:
If a liquid distention medium is used, strict fluid intake and
output surveillance should be maintained. Intrauterine
instillation exceeding 1 liter should be followed with great care
to the possibility of fluid overload. P P o o t t e e n n t t i i a a l l C C o o m m p p l l i i c c a a t t i i o o n n s s
