Disclosure and Important Safety Information

The MIRA Surgical System is intended for prescription use only. Patients should talk to their doctor to decide if surgery with a MIRA Surgical System is right for them. Patients and doctors should review all available information on nonsurgical and surgical options and associated risks in order to make an informeddecision.

Serious complications may occur in any surgery, including minimally invasive surgery with the MIRA Surgical System, up to and including death. Serious risks include, but are not limited to, injury to tissues and organs, and/or conversion to other surgical techniques which could result in a longer operative time and/or complications.

For important safety information, including surgical risks and considerations, please also refer to www.virtualincision.com/safety-information . For the product’s indications for use, risks, full cautions, and warnings, please refer to the associated user manual(s).

Individual outcomes may depend on a number of factors, including but not limited to patient characteristics, disease characteristics, surgeon, and/or hospitalexperience.

MIRA Surgical System PrecautionStatement

The demonstration of safety and effectiveness for the representative specific procedures was based on evaluation of the MIRA Surgical System as a surgical device and did not include evaluation of outcomes related to the treatment of cancer (overall survival, disease-free survival, local recurrence) or treatment of the patient’s underlying disease/condition. Device usage in all surgical procedures should be guided by the clinical judgment of an adequately trainedsurgeon.
