The most common device\u2010related events were inability to irrigate (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009186), overheating or melting of the device (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009148), and fracture of the insert tip (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200958). Due to malfunctions, 18 clinically significant case delays and 1 case abortion were reported. Patient\u2010related events occurred in 31 cases, resulting in 15 morbidities. The most common patient injury was thermal burn (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200913) followed by iatrogenic foreign body (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20098).
