Kugel Hernia Mesh Recall Lawsuit
The Kugel Mesh hernia patch lawsuits have expanded beyond the recalled patches. It appears that Davol hernia patches that were not part of the recall may have similar problems as the Kugel patch with the ring. The Kugel recall was based upon the failure of the rigid ring that was supposed to keep the patch in place. Once the ring failed, the sticky side of the patch made with marlex could move, fold up, and become bound up with the intestines, colon, and other organs. Some lawsuits have been filed alleging that other ringless Davol patches with the sticky marlex also have migrated and caused injuries to the colon and internal organs.
