Kugel Mesh Recall Lawyer

The Kugel mesh recall was announced by the manufacturer following reports of serious side effects. The Composix Kugel Mesh Patch was initially removed from the United States market on December 22, 2005. The Kugel recall was later expanded to include additional products and lot numbers. The Kugel mesh recall was due to memory recoil rings breaking after the hernia mesh is implanted. A defective hernia patch can cause life-threatening internal injuries.

The plastic recoil ring is supposed to hold the Kugel hernia mesh patch open after it is implanted. If the ring breaks, the ends can poke through the mesh and lead to several side effects including:

• bowel perforation
• bowel obstruction
• chronic intestinal fistulae
• serious infections
• death
