Texas Man Sues Hernia Patch Maker, C.R. Bard Inc. and Davol, Inc. After He Gets Infection
Following multiple surgeries to fix several hernias, Marion Teague, from Texas, started having stomach pain. The Plaintiff asserts in his product liability lawsuit that the hernia patch was defective because it became infected. The Texas man also claims that the hernia mesh was defectively designed, that the medical product manufacturer was negligent in making such a dangerous product and that there were inadequate warnings. What is of obvious concern with a defective hernia patch is the myriad of medical complications that could and do occur when there is a breach or compromise of the patch material.
The Plaintiff is pushing for in excess of $75,000 in damages and it is not known if her particular patch has anything to do with a current recall.
The Defendants have not yet answered the defective product lawsuit. If you or a loved one has been injured by this defective product, I would invite you to contact my firm, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law.
