Manufacturer Narrative

As reported, a piece of the 3dmax light mesh fell into the patient's abdomen, during insertion through the trocar.The mesh sample was not returned, as such we are unable to determine the cause of the reported issue.Based on the available information and not having the sample to evaluate, no conclusion can be made.Review of manufacturing records confirms the 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 november, 2020.The instructions for use supplied with the device states "use an appropriate sized trocar to allow mesh to slide down the trocar with minimal force." if additional information/sample is provided, a supplemental mdr will be submitted.
