Infected Tissue Lawsuit
Biomedical Tissue Services, a company based in the United
States, provided unscreened and potentially tainted tissue
to the Hotel Dieu Hospital. Health Canada warned that the
tissue was not adequately screened for such diseases as HIV,
Hepatitis B and C, syphilis and human T-cell lymphotropic
virus (HTLV I and II).
The company is subject to a criminal investigation for selling
body parts illegally harvested from funeral homes. These body
parts pose a risk of serious disease to those who receive
the parts.
.
Law
experts recommend that anyone receiving a notice from
the FDA concerning the tissue involved in a recent transplant
seek legal advice.
