A user facility reported pain and a burn to the patient's abdomen during a vaser procedure.The initial patient report notes that the individual experienced severe pain, a burning sensation, and a subsequent skin reaction described textually as a rash following the use of the medical device.Available images were reviewed by the medical reviewer.Visual inspection of the first image reveals a significant localized adverse skin reaction on the right abdominal and flank area.The affected region exhibits a sharply demarcated, erythematous, and edematous plaque covered with multiple tense, fluid-filled bullae of varying sizes.The underlying skin demonstrates a distinctive, regular textured grid pattern, suggesting direct contact or thermal/mechanical energy transfer from the device.In the second image, which appears to capture the same anatomical region at a different point in clinical management or healing, the large bullae seen previously are largely deflated or ruptured, leaving behind smaller residual fluid-filled vesicles.This image more prominently highlights the extensive, well-defined grid-like patterning across the hyperemic skin, along with substantial deep bruising and ecchymosis extending across the lateral flank
eight days after receipt of this report, the physician states that all wounds have been treated, and the condition of the patient is currently stable.More information has been requested.
