Bard/Davol’s Composix Kugel Hernia Patch FDA Expands Recall of Bard Composix Kugel Patches. Internal/Abdominal damage caused by broken hernia-patch ring |
 The Bard® Composix® Kugel® Mesh Patch is used to repair ventral (incisional) hernias caused by thinning or stretching of scar tissuethat forms after surgery. The patch is placed behind the hernia defect through a small incision. The patch is then held open by a “memory recoil ring” that allows the patch to be folded for insertion and later spring open and lay flat once it is in place. The "memory recoil ring" that opens the Bard® Composix® Kugel® Mesh Patch can break under the stress of placement of the large-sized patches inside the abdomen. This can lead to bowel perforations (rupture) and/or intestinal fistula (abnormal opening between the intestines and other organs). SIGNS OF PATCH-RING BREAKAGE:
