This event is deemed reportable based on the allegations in a lawsuit which, while unsubstantiated, suggest that a reportable event may have occurred during use of atrium medical¿s mesh product.Plaintiff allegedly experienced infected mesh, wound vac, re-herniation, pain, wound drainage, fistula, small bowel resection, bowel adhesions, additional surgery, blood loss, abscess, erythema, sinus tracts, non-healing wound, scarring and induration, incision and drainage, granulation, debridement and edema.Since this is a legal matter, the case has been turned over to legal counsel and further information obtained through investigation or discovery may fall under the attorney/client and/or work product privilege.However, atrium will supplement this report as appropriate if additional information comes to its attention.
