The Dangers of Corrective Surgery
When AlloDerm was released by LifeCell in 1995, it was intended to help treat burned skin, repair hernias, and assist in breast reconstruction. These procedures were not as successful as anticipated because of the complications associated with this product. AlloDerm has been the cause of many serious medical setbacks for patients such as infection, the development of abscesses, pain and soreness, inflammation and swelling, and the recurrence of the initial ailment. In order to treat some of these complications, the patient may be subjected to further surgeries and procedures.
If you or someone you love has suffered unnecessarily because of AlloDerm complications, you may be eligible for financial compensation for your suffering. Contact the AlloDerm attorneys of Williams Kherkher at 800-761-3187 to speak to a qualified member of our legal team about your options today.
Corrective Surgery Risks
Undergoing a surgical procedure puts a significant strain on the body. It can be difficult to recover from this sort of intrusion while also facing serious complications from an unreliable product. Unfortunately, many of the negative effects of AlloDerm may require another surgical procedure. The complications associated with this type of event include:
- Leaving the body exposed to serious infection
- Worsening of the original condition
- Creating subsequent complications that must be addressed
- Extending the recovery time of the patient
There is no reason to accept unnecessary pain and suffering that results from the negligence of another party. By taking legal action, you may be able to fight back against the negligent manufacturer.
