Defective Medical Devices

Defective Medical Devices

Essure is a contraceptive device that is permanently implanted in a woman’s reproductive system. The device became popular because it was easy to install and did not require surgery in an operating room. The Essure device consists of metal coils that are placed in the fallopian tubes to create a blockage intended to prevent pregnancy. Unfortunately, Essure has been linked to dangerous side effects, was placed on the Defective Medical Devices List, and its manufacturer, Bayer Pharmaceuticals, announced it would cease sales of Essure in the United States in 2018.

Essure has been linked to the following symptoms and side effects:

  • Abdominal pain
  • Hypersensitivity and allergic reactions
  • Fatigue and headaches
  • Hemorrhages and internal bleeding
  • Menstrual irregularities
  • Weight fluctuation
  • Unwanted pregnancy
  • Miscarriage
  • Device migration

If you have used the Essurepermanent birth control system and are experiencing complications such as those mentioned above, you should consult with MAUSNER GRAHAM INJURY LAW PLLC as soon as possible about your potential legal options. A statute of limitations (SOL) may limit the time you have to file a claim or lawsuit. If you do not file your claim or lawsuit within the SOL deadline, you may be permanently barred from doing so. Contact us now for a free consultation. There are no legal fees unless we recover for you.

Hernia Mesh

If you or a loved one has suffered a hernia mesh implant, we can help you recover your losses! Contact us today.

If you’re experiencing severe pain due to a hernia mesh, you may be entitled to compensation through a lawsuit. Hernia mesh implants have become a very popular solution for patients dealing with any type of hernia, but they also have enormous health consequences if installed incorrectly.

If you have had C-QUR mesh, or any Ethicon product, or any other surgical mesh fitted and are experiencing pain, we may be able to obtain compensation because these products are known to degrade over time. As the material wears, the mesh often shrinks, causing irritation and inflammation in the surrounding area and triggering an immune response.

Common Injuries and Complications of Hernia Meshes

  • Infection
  • Intestinal Obstruction
  • Perforation of Organs and Tissues
  • Pain
  • Migration (the implant moves from its original position)
  • Adhesion (scar tissue that sticks together)

“Studies have revealed that some materials are unsafe for humans or that their quality deteriorates drastically over time. For example, C-QUR mesh is coated with a fish oil-based substance, which has caused severe allergic reactions in some patients and an alarming rate of significant adhesions, or abnormal scar tissue that sticks tissue and organs together.”

IVC filters

IVC filters are blood clot filters implanted in the inferior vena cava, a major vein that carries blood from the lower body back to the heart. They are designed to trap blood clots and prevent them from traveling to the lungs and causing a pulmonary embolism. Unfortunately, many of these filters are unsafe and have dangerous side effects. The filter often needs to be removed during revision surgery to prevent further complications, and sometimes the filter cannot be removed at all due to complications. Our law firm is helping people who are experiencing the following symptoms and side effects due to the use of an IVC filter:

  • Device migration
  • Perforation of tissues, organs and vessels by the device
  • Device breakage
  • Emergency evacuation
  • Hypersensitivity and allergic reactions
  • Hemorrhages and internal bleeding
  • Device breakage
  • Infections
  • Pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

Specifically, we are reviewing cases involving filtration products manufactured by Cook, Bard, Cordis, and other companies, as defective medical devices are gradually increasing daily.

If you have an IVC filter product installed and experience complications such as those mentioned above, you should consult with MAUSNER GRAHAM INJURY LAW PLLC as soon as possible about your potential legal options. A statute of limitations (SOL) may limit the time you have to file a claim or lawsuit. If you do not file your claim or lawsuit within the SOL period, you may be permanently barred from doing so.
