About Composix Kugel Hernia Mesh by C.R. Bard
The Composix Kugel Mesh is manufactured by C.R. Bard, a subsidiary of Davol, Inc. It was designed with a “memory recoil ring” which allowed the patch to be folded, inserted through a small abdominal incision and, once in place, unfold and lie flat over the affected area. Unfortunately, the ring can buckle or break under the stress of placement, which in turn can cause numerous, painful, life threatening, and potentially fatal complications.

What Is Hernia Surgery?
A hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue in the body pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding tissue. Hernias commonly occur in the groin area depending on if it is in the inner or outer part of the groin. Hernias can also occur in the abdomen or in the upper stomach. Hernias can also occur as a result of surgery in the afflicted area.
It is alleged in the investigation from the Food and Drug Administration, that Atrium knew or should have known about these problems before placing the mesh into the market. Generally manufacturers have an obligation to adequately research and test their products before placing them into the market, and should warn potential consumers of the risks associated with using the product.
Problems and Complications
Certain symptoms to be cautious of that have been reported due to complications from the Bard Kugel are: pain, swelling, adhesions, obstructions, mesh migration, bacterial infection, hernia recurrence and additional surgeries to treat the recurring hernia.
