This event is deemed reportable based on the allegations in a potential lawsuit which, while unsubstantiated, suggest that a reportable event may have occurred during use of an atrium medical mesh product.Plaintiff allegedly experienced folded mesh, chronic pain, inguinal neuralgia, ilioinguinal neurectomy, iliohypogastric neurectomy, genitofemoral neurectomy, dense adhesions, scar tissue, fibro collagenous tissue with foreign body material, giant cell reaction and scant neural tissue.Since this is a potential 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.
