  • 2007 Ethicon Suture Recall

      Posted Jul 2, 2009 8:39 PM

      I just found that Ethicon had a suture recall back in 2007. I had Ethicon suture's used, but my surgery report doesn't say what type was used back in 2003. So would the billing statement be the next step to find out what type of Ethicon suture was used?? the recalled was on Panacryl & vicryl. Were these types used in V- Hernia repairs?? Could this also be the reason for so many bad days??Suture rejection like mesh rejection??? Thanks
