As reported, during a laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair procedure, the yellow anchor on the inflation tube of ventralight st mesh w/ echo ps came loose and slid down the inflation tubing which made the mesh impossible to lay flat.It was reported that the surgeon tried to cut the yellow anchor off, but it was too hard, so he sutured half of the mesh in place and then removed the echo ps and yellow anchor.It was also reported that the procedure was completed by using the same mesh.There was no patient injury.
