All About Hernia Mesh Recall

Hernia mesh is a medical device that is brought to the market to help the patients who are suffering from a hernia. It is implanted in the body of the patients to support the wall and lower the possibility of any further damage.

Though the device brought satisfaction in the lives of some patients and help them to continue their regular activities, you will find an opposite picture too. People are suffering from several ill-effects including:

•         Pain
•         Infection
•         Hernia recurrence
•         Bowel obstruction
•         Adhesion
•         Organ perforation
•         And many more

Keeping in mind the complications that the product brought in the lives of the patients, the mesh manufacturers recalled their products in some of the cases.

Since 2005, more than 200,000 units of hernia mesh are recalled by the manufacturers. Ethicon ordered a “market withdrawal” taking mesh off the market without any recall.

Hernia is a debilitating condition which affects a large number of the population throughout the world. This condition occurs when an organ or a fatty tissue pushes and squeezes through a weak spot located near the surrounding muscles or connective tissues. In some cases it can be externally visible while straining. Hernias are usually not life threatening and in most cases do not result in any symptom. But, in some cases hernias may be responsible for intolerable pain and discomfort.

To treat hernia, patients are advised to go through a surgery. This surgery involves implantation of a device known as surgical mesh. Hernia mesh is used in up to 90% of all the surgeries which are performed in the US. Unfortunately, a significant number of patients have encountered lethal complications after undergoing this surgery. This has instigated them to file surgical mesh lawsuit against the mesh device manufacturers.

As per the FDA, most of the reported complications were due to recalled mesh products. Some of the common complications include infection, pain, recurrence of hernia, obstruction, perforation of organs and a lot more. Recalled mesh products were the primary culprits behind bowel perforation and other lethal complications. Surgical mesh recall was a complete disaster, which has impaired the lives of umpteen numbers of patients.
