The Complications of Hernia Mesh Repair

A hernia occurs when part of an organ or lump of tissues jut out from a weak part in the muscles. It mainly happens around the abdominal or pelvic region. More than 90% of the hernia repair surgeries in the United States require hernia mesh. Unfortunately, these devices, which was initially thought to be effective has a lot of complications. 

The primary idea of hernia repair with mesh is to provide support to the damaged or torn tissues around hernias. Surgeons place the mesh across the damaged tissues surrounding the hernia with staples, stitches or glue. 

It is possible to reduce the risk of it relapsing by using hernia mesh. Unfortunately, there are some commonly reported issues after hernia mesh surgery. They include:

• Relapse of hernia: improper surgical technique, migration of the broken mesh particles increases the chance of the hernia to occur again.

• Inflammation: polypropylene is commonly used for the treatment of hernia repair meshes but some bodies might not be compatible with the material. This can cause inflammation in and around the operated site. 

• Skin and intestinal complications: There's often the chance of the mesh being stuck in the bowel which causes blockage in the intestinal flow. A corrective surgery is required to clear the condition.
