About Physiomesh

Physiomesh is a hernia patch used in hernia repair surgeries designed to strengthen the abdominal wall. Hernia is a health issue that is caused when the underlying organs squeeze through the weak spots in the abdominal wall. Patches are widely used to minimize the possibility of infection and pain. Repairs are usually done laparoscopically, or in case of a major tear in the abdominal wall, can be a part of an open surgery. The Physiomesh was designed to prevent the re-opening of hernias and was approved by the FDA’s 510 K process.

Physiomesh Hernia Patch Complication Lawsuits

Several cases have been filed in Florida for injuries caused by Physiomesh. In a particular case in Florida, the mesh blocked a woman’s intestine and was embedded in her abdominal wall, so it could not be removed completely.

The Physiomesh Flexible Composite mesh was designed to be non-absorbent and flexible. The FDA approved the mesh in 2010 without clinical trials. That was because it was similar to other meshes available in the market at that time.

Since then, thousands of cases have been filed, and many of them are pending. If you or your loved ones have been injured from the use of this mesh product, you are eligible for compensation for the damages caused.
