No sample was returned for evaluation.Manufacturing review of the cangaroo device history record could not be performed as the model/lot/serial numbers were not reported.It is also noted that per the instructions for use (ifu - art-20828a) provided with the finished cangaroo envelope device, 'hematoma' is listed as a potential complication associated with this procedure and device usage.The patient was on anticoagulants which would have increased the likelihood of post-operative hematoma formation.The ifu provided with the aziyo product indicates that the usage of certain glues in contact with the device can interrupt the remodeling process.However, the reference to the use of glue to seal the incision likely had no impact on the reported hematoma formation.The presence of the hematoma likely led to the wound dehiscence as there would have been pressure exerted on the incision, allowing for the failure of the glue.Therefore, the wound opening was not a separate adverse event related to the aziyo product itself but likely caused by the adverse event of the hematoma.
