AlloDerm Mesh Erosion Lawyer
AlloDerm is a tissue matrix produced by Life Cell that is intended to replace the common suturing and recovery process in hernia repair procedures and in post-mastectomy procedures. This product is intended to promote regeneration of the patient’s own cells while providing structural support in medical procedures that call for tissue repair. This product, like any other medical product, has both benefits and risks. But the risks associated with a medical procedure, and the materials used in that procedure, can have painful and even dangerous results for the patient.
Studies across the nation have suggested that AlloDerm could use further development before it is a completely effective and safe product. If you have suffered pain or discomfort because of AlloDerm, you may deserve compensation for that pain and loss.

Mesh Erosion
Allografts like AlloDerm have a known risk of erosion, and if an incision does not fully heal by the time the matrix erodes, then the patient is left in considerable pain and with very few options. Though AlloDerm is a useful product, multiple sources have concluded that there is a risk that the product will erode, leading to painful complications.
Common AlloDerm complications include:
- Swelling
- Pain
- Abscess
- Necessity of further surgical procedures
AlloDerm is intended to fix specific problems, but erosion can negate its benefits. This leaves the patient with no option but to undergo further painful and expensive procedures.
