Based on the information provided, we are unable to determine to what extent, if any, the phasix mesh may have caused or contributed to the patient's postoperative wound dehiscence and seroma.Seroma formation is a known inherent risk of any surgical procedure.As reported, the event is reported to be resolving and no further intervention was required.The instructions-for-use supplied with the device lists seroma and wound dehiscence as possible complications.Review of manufacturing records indicate product was manufactured to specification.To date, this is the only reported complaint for this manufacturing lot of (b)(4) units released for distribution in february 2020.Should additional information be provided, a supplemental mdr will be submitted.Not returned - remains implanted.
