Kugel Mesh Patch Lawsuits: Do You Need
a Hernia Injury Lawyer?
A lawsuit has been filed in Rhode Island against the makers of the Composix
Kugel Mesh Patch claiming the patch failed after it was implanted, causing
severe pain to a hernia patient. The patient required bowel dissection surgery
to remove the patch.
The plaintiff had the Kugel Mesh Patch implanted in 2004. His patch was not
included in the initial patch recall of December 22, 2005, but was later
included in the updated recall announced March 31, 2006.
Lawyers argue that the plaintiff suffered from abdominal tenderness and
developed a second hernia after his Kugel Mesh Patch was inserted. It was during
the surgery to repair the second hernia that doctors discovered the patch was
stuck to the patient's bowel. This required a bowel dissection to remove the
patch from his bowel, resulting in chronically inflamed bowels.
Mesh Patch lawyers for the plaintiff argue that Davol, Inc. (maker of the
Mesh Patch), knew that there was a possibility of failure in the Kugel Mesh
Patch but did not properly warn the public.
The patch is inserted through a small incision and is placed behind the hernia.
A memory recoil ring is used to keep the mesh patch closed until after it has
been inserted in the body. The purpose of the mesh patch is to prevent the
hernia from pushing through weakened tissue walls, specifically when stomach
muscles are too weak for surgery to repair the hernia.
The hernia surgery failure problem is that the memory recoil ring can break
under the stress of placement in the body, resulting in bowel perforations and
chronic intestinal fistulae.
