SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Pomerantz Law Firm Investigates Claims On Behalf of Investors of Intuitive Surgical, Inc. - ISRG

NEW YORK, May 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of Intuitive Surgical, Inc. ("Intuitive Surgical" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ISRG) (CUSIP: 46120E602) who purchased Intuitive Surgical common stock between October 19, 2011 and April 18, 2013 (the "Class Period"). Such investors are advised to contact Robert S. Willoughby at [email protected] or 888-476-6529, ext. 237.

The investigation concerns whether Intuitive Surgical and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On March 5, 2013, Bloomberg ran an expose disclosing that its review of pleadings in at least ten lawsuits filed against Intuitive during the prior 14 months and FDA adverse incident reports that had uncovered that robotic surgical systems made by Intuitive had been linked to at least 70 deaths in informal incident reports sent to the FDA since 2009.

On April 18, 2013, CNBC's Investigations, Inc. broadcast an expose on the da Vinci Surgical System consisting of interviews with, among others, doctors, lawyers, and patients who have filed lawsuits against Intuitive claiming they suffered injury while being operated on by surgeons using the da Vinci Surgical System. On this news, shares of Intuitive stock fell $8.62 per share to close at $484.75 per share on April 19, 2013.
