  1. Emergency room

    Made Aug 5, 2013, sent to the company Aug 23, 2013, published by CPSC Sep 9, 2013

    The product, in the report: Swim suit

    The consumer stated that her 7 year old grand child groin area became entrapped in the netting of the swim suit. He started complaining after wearing it for approximately 2 hrs. She had to cut the clothing off and the netting was still stuck to his groin area which caused swelling and bruising. The child was taken to the emergency room at Lutheran Hospital in Brooklyn where the physician had to use medical scissors to remove the netting. The child was treated and released for followup with his pediatrician.

    7/21/13 The retailer was contacted and she was informed that someone would pick up the clothing, she was further asked to send photographs of the incidents. She sent in the information but no one has responded.

    7/2013 The manufacturer was contacted and she was advised that someone would contact her.

    The consumer is concerned that this swim suit is a safety hazard which caused harm to the child and should be reported.

    The product is not involved in a recall.
