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 small bowel perforation and resection, adhesions, hernia recurrence and additional surgery.
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.
