Could Your Life Be Threatened By The Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch?

By: Tymone Oaklin Home | Business



This is a must read article! If you can spare 60 seconds minutes to read this article, you may find you may be entitled to a large cash settlement. 
Due to the Kugel Mesh Recall, there has been several patients who have allegedly undergone unsuccessful hernia surgeries.  The Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch allegedly  caused patients to contract MRSA better known as a severe staph infection. Recently, there has been an addition to the list of class 1 Kugel Mesh recalls manufactured by C.R Bard Inc, a leading Kugel Mesh patch manufacturer.
On January 24, 2007 the FDA decided to recall the Bard Composix Kugel Mesh Patch, which is used to repair ventral hernias caused by thinning or stretching of scar tissue that forms after surgery.
During form of surgery, the Kugel mesh patch is placed behind the hernia defect through a small incision. The mesh patch is then held open by a “memory recoil ring” that allows the patch to be folded for insertion. Once the process of insertion is complete, the recoil spring open and lay flat once it is in place. 
According to Davol, a subsidiary of C.R. Bard, Inc., the "memory recoil ring" that opens the Large sized Bard Composix Kugel Mesh Patch, can allegedly break under the stress of placement of the large sized products in the intra-abdominal (inside the belly area) space.  
Prior to the Kugel Mesh Recall, doctors discovered the following alleged life-threatening side effects such as serious infection, bowel movement perforation, obstruction of bowel movement, chronic intestinal fistulae which is recognized as abnormal connections between the intestines as well as other organs and it can allegedly cause death. 
The Kugel Mesh recall was given when medical experts discovered that these symptoms could have also been caused by a ring breakage within the Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch. They know symptoms of ring breakage are allegedly tenderness at the implant site, persistent abdominal pain and fever.
This alleged imperfection can also lead to bowel perforations rupture and/or chronic recurring intestinal fistulae (abnormal connections or passageways between the intestines and other organs).  Patients who have had the Kugel mesh patch inserted during surgery are advised patients to seek medical attention immediately.
Be sure to contact a doctor and a Kugel Mesh Recall lawyer if you are experiencing symptoms.
