Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch Linked to Severe Injuries

Injuries and complications linked to the patch include:

  • Bowel obstructions
  • Chronic enteric fistulae (irregular connections between the intestines and other organs)

The surgery involves doctors making a small incision and placing the patch behind the hernia defect.

The Kugel hernia patch was approved by the Food and Drug Administration on February 9, 2001. The product was recalled after reports that the recoil rings in some of the models of the hernia patch were breaking. The patch was developed by Davol Inc. (a subsidiary of C.R.
