Greg McEwen, representative of US Drug Lawsuit says, “Hernia meshes are known to be related to quite a few health issues and complications. As a matter of fact, most new research actually indicates that hernia meshes might be doing more harm in the long run than good. These meshes have a tendency to shrink, shift, or migrate inside the body following surgery. As a consequence, many hernia mesh patients wind up suffering from recurrent hernias, chronic pain, infection, and organ perforation, which leads to them needing additional surgeries so that the new internal injuries can be repaired and the defective mesh can get replaced.”

US Drug Lawsuits says that the reason behind defective meshes getting on the market is that a lot of hernia mesh makers, including manufacturers such as Atrium and Bard, utilize the 510(k) FDA approval process to get their frequently defective mesh products approved for sale. The 501(k) allows companies to bypass crucial safety testing requirements when the FDA has already approved similar products. The only thing that manufacturers have to do is to demonstrate that their new product is as effective and safe or even significantly equivalent to any product already approved for sale.

Any time a hernia mesh device is granted fast-track approval, the companies making them can start marketing their new devices. There are no requirements for the mesh to go through any clinical trials or for the FDA to take a closer look. As a consequence, many defective mesh products wind up finding their way into various operating rooms, and thus also into patients’ bodies.

McEwen says, “The most important thing you need to know is which hernia mesh device you have because not every hernia mesh product is created equally. Each mesh has its own distinct complications and risks. With the expertise of our attorneys, you can easily figure out which specific hernia mesh device was used for your personal hernia repair surgery and then, once we’ve identified the exact specific mesh that was used for your personal hernia surgery, we can start to work on accumulating the evidence necessary for your particular case.” More information can be found at the following link: US Drug Lawsuits - Hernia Mesh Lawsuits.
