Category: Kugel Hernia Patch

Patients who have had hernia repair surgery should review the latest recall information to see if they were implanted with one of the recalled hernia patches.

If you are unsure if your hernia surgeon used a hernia patch you should contact their office for a copy of your medical records. Don't wait, it could mean the difference between life or death - it has for many.

Patients who were indeed implanted with one of the recalled hernia patches may qualify for medical monitoring and also compensation from the hernia patch manufacturer.

Had the manufacturer performed accurate testing, it would displayed the defects of the device and hundreds of people would have been spared adverse health affects, additional surgeries and many lives could have been saved.
