Does a Los Angeles Hernia Mesh Repair Surgery Lower Your Quality of Life?
If you experience a hernia, you may be reviewed and consulted by a specialist to undergo a
hernia repair surgery. A hernia that is not repaired rarely repairs itself, therefore this surgery will
be necessary to fully repair the hernia to offer the best opportunity for a full recovery after a
hernia injury. But if your hernia surgery is unsuccessful because of a failed hernia mesh product,
you may experience complications that last a lifetime. If this is the case, you will also feel as if
your quality of life is significantly lowered, and besides not being fair, it will definitely affect the
course of your recovery post hernia repair surgery. You can call some of the best Los Angeles hernia mesh lawyers now, to review your situation and personal injuries related to a failed hernia mesh product
related to your hernia surgery.
Complications After the Hernia Repair Surgery Are an Unwanted Side Effect of the
Procedure
Hernia repair surgeries are common surgical procedures performed globally to repair a hernia.
But an unwanted side effect of a hernia repair surgery is that there may be complications related
to the hernia repair. Hernia mesh products are used to implant a mesh into the patient’s body to
repair a hernia. But there can be issues when a hernia mesh is defective, damaged or otherwise
not fit for the purpose of hernia repair. It is important that a hernia repair surgery be completed
by a board-certified surgeon, and someone who has performed hernia repair surgeries for a
specialty. Even with the best hernia repair surgeon, if the hernia mesh product is defective from
the manufacturer, there will be little that can be done besides initiating a lawsuit to right the
wrongs of this situation. Your hernia repair surgery that failed will come as a surprise to you. In
that case, you can call our office to talk to a Los Angeles hernia mesh lawyer today at the Law
Offices of Gary K. Walch, at 866-INJURY2 or 866-465-8792.
Why Are Some Hernia Meshes Better Than Others?
Hernia mesh products are manufactured to be used in hernia repair surgeries. But commercially
made hernia mesh products can differ in the biomechanical properties of the mesh themselves. 1
This means that even if the hernia repair surgery is a success, the hernia mesh can fail. The
hernia mesh being used for the surgical procedure needs to perform over the critical resistance of
the mesh to the tissues and other internal structures of the body, where the mesh is implanted.
Some studies show that the patient’s abdomen is permanently “burdened” by the hernia repair,
and the hope is that muscle fibers reinforce around the mesh product over time to solidify the
hernia repair site after the surgery. 1
