Were You Injured by Breast Mesh or ADM Products?

Breast mesh, scaffold, and acellular dermal matrix (ADM) products are used by surgeons during breast reconstruction (following mastectomy or lumpectomy), mastopexy (breast lift), augmentation, reduction, and revision surgery. Manufacturers often market these products as an "internal bra," describing them as soft-tissue support or scaffold reinforcement meant to hold implants and tissue in place while the body heals.

Unfortunately, patients across the country have experienced serious complications tied to these products from infection and mesh migration to tissue necrosis, implant loss, and additional surgeries to remove or repair the damage.

 

If this happened to you or a loved one, Jinks Crow can help you understand your legal options at no cost.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is breast mesh or ADM, and why is it used?

Breast mesh and acellular dermal matrix (ADM) products are surgical materials used to add internal support during breast reconstruction, mastopexy (breast lift), augmentation, reduction, or revision surgery. They are sometimes described by manufacturers as an "internal bra," soft-tissue support, or scaffold reinforcement that helps hold implants or tissue in place while the body heals.

Q: What products are involved in the breast mesh litigation?

The litigation involves mesh, scaffold, and ADM products used during breast surgery, including GalaFLEX (all variants), Phasix (all variants), AlloMax, AlloDerm, Flex HD, Strattice, SERI, SurgiMend, DuraSorb, TIGR Matrix, Vicryl Mesh, TiLOOP Bra, and other similar mesh/ADM products used in breast surgery.

Q: What injuries qualify for a breast mesh claim?

Qualifying injuries generally include infection or abscess, mesh migration or shrinkage, tissue necrosis or skin erosion, severe capsular contracture or deformity, seroma, hematoma, wound dehiscence, mesh exposure or extrusion, implant loss, inflammatory or immune reactions, or any complication requiring medical intervention.

Q: Do I need to have had a second surgery to qualify?

Generally, yes, you should have had a subsequent surgery to remove, repair, or address mesh-related complications, or have compelling non-surgical complications (such as chronic pain or deformity) where a revision has been medically recommended but not yet performed.

Q: Is there a deadline to file a breast mesh claim? Yes. These claims are subject to strict statute of limitations rules tied to the timing of your revision surgery, or applicable wrongful death deadlines in the case of a death. These windows can close quickly, so it's important to have your case reviewed as soon as possible.

Q: Does it cost anything to have my case reviewed?

No. Case evaluations are free and confidential.
