    What is a Hernia?

    A hernia is bulging of an organ, intestine, or fatty tissue through an opening or weak site in the encompassing muscle or connective tissue; one indication of hernia is an external protrusion that is observed particularly when straining or bending down. In most cases, hernias are observed near the abdominal wall but can also be found near the groin and belly button region.

    Types of Hernias:

    Based on anatomy, there are five types of hernias which occur commonly:

    Inguinal (Groin) Hernia: in the inner groin
    Femoral Hernia: in the upper thigh/outer groin
    Ventral (Abdominal) Hernia: in the general abdominal/ventral wall
    Umbilical Hernia: at the belly button
    Hiatal Hernia: inside the abdomen, along the upper stomach/diaphragm

    Inisional hernia is a subtype of ventral hernia that is caused by a surgical wound that hasn’t completely healed.

    Class I Recall and Safety Investigation of Counterfeit Polypropylene Surgical Mesh: Updated June 10, 2010

    This is an update of FDA’s Initial Communication on counterfeit polypropylene surgical mesh, which was issued on March 11, 2010. It contains additional information about the recall of this product and updates FDA’s recommendations and activities.

    Various sizes of counterfeit flat sheets of polypropylene surgical mesh have been marketed in the United States labeled with the C. R. Bard/Davol brand name. These meshes, specifically identified below, are NOT Bard-manufactured products. Surgical meshes of this kind are used to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists, such as in the repair of hernias and chest wall defects.

    Summary of Problem and Scope:

    FDA’s and Bard’s investigations found the counterfeit product is labeled with the following product codes, sizes and lots of Bard Flat Mesh (commonly known as Marlex mesh). Investigations found most of the counterfeit product is labeled with genuine Bard lot numbers. To date, four product sizes have been identified:

    Product Codes and Sizes Lot Numbers
    0112650 – Bard Flat Mesh 2″ x 4″ Lot 48HVS036
    Lot 43APD007
    0112660 – Bard Flat Mesh 10″ x 14″ Lot HUSD0629
    Lot HURL0336
    0112680 – Bard Flat Mesh 3″ x 6″ Lot 43HPD027
    Lot 43HPD032
    Lot 43HPD034
    Lot HUSG0540
    Lot 43HDP027
    Lot HUSE0532
    Lot 43LPD507

    Lot 43IOD011
    Lot 43IPD038
    0112720 – Bard Flat Mesh 6″ x 6″ Lot 43FQD327

    These counterfeit products were distributed from October 21, 2008 to October 27, 2009.
