What Are The Common Complications From Hernia Mesh Surgery?


Hernia surgery is extremely common all across the globe. Numerous synthetic mesh products are used to repair hernias which were thought to be a better alternative than the exiting treatment procedure.

Unfortunately, there were thousands of reports about the complications from the abdominal hernia surgery which involved the implantation of the meshes. 


Closer look at defective hernia mesh symptoms

After undergoing a hernia mesh implant, patients would obviously expect the operation to correct their hernia issues and help them to continue their lives on normally without any further pain. However, this has not been the case for all patients. Some have suffered painful and severe complications after the device was implanted, that even required an invasive surgery at times to remove the mesh. This can then cause the patient to have to undergo another revision surgery to correct the hernia again, which can be a risky procedure.

Below is a complete list of complications one might experience after abdominal hernia surgery:


  •          Erosion of the implanted mesh through tissue
  •          Migration of the mesh
  •          Chronic pain
  •          Chronic inflammation and irritation
  •          Shrinkage or contraction of the mesh
  •          Infection
  •          Abscess
  •          Fistula
  •          Neuro-muscular problems
  •          Bowel adhesion
  •          Formation of Seroma (where fluid is collected between the mesh and tissue)
  •          Scarring
  •          Recurrence of hernia
  •          Bowel obstruction
  •          Bowel resection
  •          Related emotional problems


Defective medical device claims are time-sensitive, so if you have suffered from the complications and are fighting for the rights to legal compensation, be aware that it might take time.  You can claim for the expenses of the medical treatment, loss of wages and expenses for the pain and suffering.
