It was reported via legal documentation that: the patient has retained an attorney who contacted exactech to toll the statute of limitations and preserve the patient¿s ability to file a lawsuit in the future.Because the patient has retained an attorney to preserve the right to file a legal action seeking redress for alleged past serious injury or future serious injury allegedly stemming from the use of an exactech device, the patient appears to allege that there is a purported deficiency in the device and/or that the patient has incurred serious injury as a result of the device.The ebi search listed two 132-36-53 liners, serial #s (b)(6) and (b)(6), for this patient's invoice.Unable to determine which liner was implanted.
