Hernia Mesh

Sutures and non-mesh products have been used to repair hernias; however, in an attempt to expand the mesh market, medical device companies recently began to sell coated hernia mesh. Many of these companies never conducted a single human trial on the hernia meshes they brought to market, basically using the general public as guinea pigs for the massive medical device corporations.

There are approximately 1 million hernias repaired every year. Hernias were previously repaired with sutures and non-mesh procedures, such as the shouldice repair. Now, medical device companies have begun to sell coated hernia mesh.

The results are in, and it’s evident that hernia mesh is extremely dangerous and can cause horrific, life-changing injuries.

No Doctor Will Remove My Hernia Mesh

A common complaint we hear from many clients, is that no doctor is willing to take the risk of removing their painful and infected hernia mesh.

After adhesions form between the hernia mesh and the bowel, the removal of the mesh becomes extremely difficult and risky. The slightest mistake during the lengthy removal surgery can result in bowel perforations. At times, the mesh is so adhered to the bowel that large segments of the bowel must be removed with the hernia mesh.

Any surgeon can slap a hernia mesh in, but it takes a highly skilled surgeon to remove a hernia mesh.
