    MEDTRONIC RECEIVED INFORMATION REGARDING A NAVIGATION SYSTEM BEING USED FOR A CRANIAL RESECTION PROCEDURE. IT WAS REPORTED THAT HOURS AFTER THE SURGERY, THE PATIENT PRESENTED AN 'AFFECTATION' IN THE SKIN OF THEIR FOREHEAD IN THE PRESSURE AREA OF THE ADHESIVE PAD. NOTHING WAS OBSERVED DURING THE PROCEDURE; JUST A PRESSURE MARK ASSOCIATED WITH NORMAL USE. THE 'AFFECTATION' ON THE PATIENT'S FOREHEAD WAS DIAGNOSED AS EPIDERMOLYSIS DUE TO CONTACT. THE PATIENT WAS FINISHING THEIR SURGERY RECOVERY IN THE INTENSIVE CARE UNIT (ICU) AND WAS BEING TREATED BY A DERMATOLOGIST. THE DOCTOR REPORTED THAT THE SKIN PROBLEM SEEMED LIKE A SECOND-DEGREE BURN, WHICH WAS CRUSTING, POSSIBLY CAUSED BY A REACTION TO THE CHEMICAL AGENTS.
