About LeMaitre Vascular, Inc.
LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. is a publicly traded medical device company (NASDAQ: LMAT) headquartered in Burlington, Massachusetts. Founded in 1986 by vascular surgeon George D. LeMaitre, the company develops, manufactures, and markets disposable and implantable devices used by vascular surgeons to treat peripheral vascular disease, including biologic patches, vascular grafts, carotid shunts, and embolectomy catheters. It also provides human tissue cryopreservation services and sells its products through a direct sales force in more than 90 countries. Because the breach involved Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, and health records, the type of information at risk is particularly sensitive.
What Happened?
LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. was listed in a Vermont Attorney General breach report summary dated September 18th, 2026. The report identifies the compromised data categories as Social Security numbers, government ID numbers, and health records. No total affected-person count, notification date, or identity theft protection offer was specified in the breach report summary.
Supplemental research indicates that LeMaitre Vascular disclosed a January 2026 cybersecurity incident in its annual 10-K filing with the SEC, describing the event as non-material. The September 18th, 2026 Vermont Attorney General notification very likely corresponds to that same January 2026 incident, as breach notifications commonly follow months after an incident while investigations and individual notifications are completed. No ransomware group has been publicly identified as claiming responsibility, and no class action lawsuits connected to this breach have been identified as of the research date.

What Should You Do?
If you received a notice from LeMaitre Vascular, Inc., take steps now to protect yourself. Enroll in any identity theft protection program offered if one was provided and note any enrollment deadline. Place a fraud alert or credit freeze with the three major credit bureaus — Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion — to make it harder for someone to open new accounts in your name. Monitor your existing accounts and request your free credit reports at AnnualCreditReport.com. Because health records were reportedly involved, review your Explanation of Benefits statements from your insurer and check your medical records for any services you did not receive. If you suspect misuse of your information, visit IdentityTheft.gov for step-by-step guidance from the Federal Trade Commission.
