Surgical Breast Mesh Legal Claim Information
 

Breast Mesh products under investigation:

Many women have reported severe complications, sometimes requiring multiple corrective surgeries and ongoing medical care.

Our firm is currently investigating potential claims involving women who were treated with surgical breast mesh products.

 

WHAT IT IS:

Breast mesh is a surgical implant material used inside the chest to maintain breast shape during reconstructive or cosmetic procedures, reinforce breast tissue, or support implants.

Synthetic Mesh: Made from dissolvable polymers designed to provide temporary structural support before being gradually absorbed by the body — though absorption does not always occur as intended.

Biologic Mesh: Made from processed human or animal tissue and intended to integrate with the patient's own tissue. Reports of rejection, infection, and structural failure have been documented.

 

WHO IS AT RISK:

You may be eligible to pursue a legal claim if you had surgical breast mesh implanted and later experienced complications. This includes women who underwent:

    • Breast reconstruction surgery (including after mastectomy)
    • Breast augmentation with mesh
    • Breast reduction involving mesh reinforcement
    • Breast lift (mastopexy) using an internal mesh support

Cases involving procedures performed in 2016 or later are currently being investigated.

 

THE INJURY:

Injuries we are investigating include:

    • Severe infection or abscess requiring hospitalization or extended treatment
    • Seroma (persistent fluid buildup around the implant)
    • Necrotizing tissue (skin or tissue death) at the surgical site
    • Mesh erosion through the skin
    • Migration or displacement of the mesh from its original position
    • Chronic pain, disfigurement, or loss of sensation
    • Need for revision surgery or complete removal of the mesh and/or implant
    • Emotional distress, depression, and diminished quality of life

These injuries may give rise to claims for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages against the device manufacturers.

 

Potential Legal claims against manufacturers:

Legal claims in breast mesh cases may include, but are not limited to:

Failure to Warn/Negligence: Manufacturers knew or should have known about the risk of serious complications and failed to provide adequate warnings to surgeons and patients.

Defective Design: The mesh products were inherently flawed in design, making them unreasonably dangerous for their intended use in breast surgery.

Defective Manufacturing: Some products may have been manufactured in ways that deviated from specifications, creating additional safety risks.
