Settlement Reached in Morcellator Lawsuit

Originally published by Bob Kraft.

According to a plaintiff’s attorney involved in the trial, reported the Wall Street Journal, there has been a settlement in a federal lawsuit against Lina Medical ApS, the manufacturer of an allegedly-defective laparoscopic power morcellator. The case had been expected to be the first of its kind to go to trial, ahead of at least 21 similar lawsuits involving the use of morcellators. The Journal went on to says that negative publicity over their risks and FDA intervention have significantly curbed the use of morcellators; in 2014, the Journal noted, Johnson & Johnson voluntarily stopped selling the devices.
