Physiomesh Injury Information Center

If you had laparoscopic hernia repair surgery using a mesh patch and suffered complications such as a recurrence of the hernia, you may have been harmed by a defective medical device. Many patients who have had the Physiomesh™ Flexible Composite Mesh implanted during hernia surgery in recent years have experienced serious complications including the need for additional surgery. Some injured patients have already filed injury lawsuits and many others are expected to file them. It’s important to understand that these lawsuits are not brought against the surgeon who operated on you. Hernia mesh injury lawsuits are filed against the medical device companies that rush unsafe products onto the market that cause harm.
