Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch

What do you need to know about the Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch? Originally produced by pharmaceutical company Bard/Davol, the Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch is intended to help post-surgical hernia victims. The Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch reinforces the hernia area endangered when scar tissue thins or stretches and contains a patented "memory recoil ring" device that allows the patch to spring open within the body after insertion. It is used as a surgical implant to repair hernial damage due to incisions from previous surgeries.

Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch Recall

The Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch was initially regarded as a positive breakthrough for incisional hernia sufferers.  However, in 2005 the FDA issued a partial recall of the Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch due to malfunctions of the memory recoil system. In some patients, the malfunction can cause punctured organs, intestinal fistulae, bowel rupture and other internal problems. The Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch recall was updated in 2007 to include other sizes and product codes. Recalled versions of the Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh Patch include Oval, Extra Large Oval, Large Oval and Circle sizes and models denoted with product codes 0010202 and 0010204.
