About Hernia Mesh Lawsuits
There are more than 50,000 defective hernia mesh lawsuits pending. If you or a family member had a hernia mesh implanted after 1999 and experienced complications requiring additional treatment or surgery, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
Complications resulting from hernia mesh surgery can be severe. Victims are alleging that manufacturers failed to disclose potential risks to surgeons. The FDA has recalled several hernia meshes due to post-surgery complications, including Bard’s Kugel Hernia Mesh and Medical C-QUR Mesh by Atrium. In addition, Johnson & Johnson ended sales of Ethicon’s Physiomesh Flexible Composite Mesh due to FDA violations.
