Why Is Hernia Mesh Surgery Ever Reversed?
Hernia Mesh Surgeries That Fail Often Need to Be Reversed
If you have suffered a failed hernia mesh surgery, you may need to get it reversed. If a hernia repair surgery is performed on the patient’s abdominal wall and it results in complications, there may be the need to take that insinuating mesh product out and redo the surgery. Most people do not want to “go under the knife” the first time, and take offense to having prepared for a hernia repair surgery that later is not even successful to repair their hernia condition. If you have to go under the knife a second time to remove a defective, faulty or otherwise problematic hernia mesh, you may have experienced a defective hernia mesh product. In the event that this has happened to you, just call us today to talk to a Los Angeles hernia Mesh Lawer at the Law Offices of Gary K. Walch, and you can discuss your problems and concerns with us at 866-INJURY2 or 866-465-8792.
Hernia Repair Surgeries Are Supposed to Repair the Hernia the First Time
If your hernia repair surgery has made your hernia and other health problems worse, then you
may have the reasons to initiate a lawsuit. Sometimes the hernia mesh product is recalled for
being unfit for the purpose of repairing a hernia mesh. This has been the case with the recalled
hernia mesh products Dexon manufactured by the company Syneture. These products were
defective and the company had to recall them before they injured other people. When a patient
has a hernia, the person is watched closely to ensure the hernia does not escalate, and a hernia
repair surgery is scheduled. There are three types of hernia mesh products on the market now,
including synthetic meshes, biological mesh, and composite meshes that use a synthetic
polymer and natural or synthetic materials. 1 In essence, when there are defective hernia mesh
products, the hernia repair can be negated as a waste of time. This is because a defective hernia
mesh product will not work, and can wreck-havoc on your body, forcing it to eventually need
to be removed.
What Are the Different Types of Abdominal Wall Hernias?
The World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) identifies abdominal wall hernias as being
either groin or ventral hernias, which are based on the anatomical location of the hernia in the
body. Groin hernias usually occur on the lower half of your body and can be typed as:
Indirect inguinal
Direct inguinal
Femoral hernias
In contrast, the ventral hernias are of the type including:
Umbilical
Epigastric
Spigelian
Lumbar
Incisional hernias
