Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The patient initially displayed signs of poor healing at the incision site, but no reports were received of any signs of infection.Approximately 2 months after the implant, the surgical sites appeared to have healed.It is unclear if there was any event that may have caused the wounds to re-open.The patient's medical history is unknown to the firm and thus unable to determine if there is possibly an underlying condition that may have caused failure to heal.Poor healing is a known risk of surgical procedures.
