Hernia Mesh Defect in Ring Causes Bowel
Perforations
The "memory recoil ring" that opens the Composix Kugel Mesh Patch after it has been inserted into the intra-abdominal space can break. This can lead to bowel perforations and/or chronic intestinal fistulae (abnormal connections or passageways between the intestines and other organs).
The Composix Kugel Mesh Patch was
voluntarily recalled in December 2005.

before this time period and are unsure

used, consult your physician and then

or death.
Polypropylene
Hernia Mesh Defect - links to Sterility
Eight institutions in the United States reported a total of 14 cases of
reproductive obstruction related to a previously
repaired hernia where the use of a polypropylene mesh
was present.
Polypropylene mesh is
used in an estimated 80% of inguinal hernia
operations. The hernia surgery repair procedure
involves placement of a knitted
polypropylene mesh to form a "tension-free" herniorrhaphy.
The problem is that the prosthetic mesh causes an
adverse reaction by the body to which the
response is to create scar tissue that can
lead to blockage of the reproductive
channels in male patients.
If
you or someone you love has had
polypropylene mesh used to repair their hernia, call the Law Offices of Handler, Henning & Rosenberg, LLP.
We help
you. Call us right now at
1-800-461-4140.
Fertility Reconstruction After
Hernia Malpractice
Reconstruction to restore fertility
can be difficult after scar tissue
has built up. Before undergoing
polypropylene mesh surgery,
men, especially of young
reproductive age need to be
carefully advised of potential
obstruction and compromise to future
fertility.
If you were not advised
of this possible heath risk related
to your hernia mesh implant, then you need to call the Law
Offices of Handler, Henning & Rosenberg, LLP immediately to get help.
Call
today at 1-800-461-4140 for your free
consultation about your hernia and the use
of Polypropylene Mesh or the Composix Kugel Mesh Patch.
