Have you followed the vaginal mesh news?

Pelvic mesh, vaginal mesh, sling or as commonly known as transvaginal mesh is widely used for the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. These devices are FDA approved and were branded to be safe and effective alternative to the existing treatment options.

Unfortunately, there have been rising number of reports in the vaginal mesh news claiming how women are facing transvaginal mesh complications.

The most common complications associated with these mesh surgeries include:

•    mesh erosion
•    obstruction in the urinary tract
•    damage surrounding the pelvic blood vessel
•    infection and irritation in the genital organs
•    inconsistent bladder or bowel movement
•    pain during intercourse

Mesh erosion

Of the many complications occurring from transvaginal mesh implant, mesh erosion is one of the most severe and commonly stated side effects. It needs to go through a series of mesh removal surgery to clear the pieces of debris. Repetitive incision in the area can lead to chronic pain along with chances of infection.

Vaginal scarring, urinary tract infections, nerve damage, vaginal shrinkage, and emotional turmoil are the other health issues associated with a defective mesh surgery. Furthermore, some patients do not show any signs of complications until it becomes a complicated one. When the treatment is done so late, it results in the recurrence of the original symptoms of POP and SUI.

The transvaginal mesh lawyers fight on behalf of the victims and claim to get the maximum share f settlement from the manufacturing companies for misleading them with the devices. The victims who are unduly harmed by the vaginal mesh implant can claim for the ongoing and future medical expenses, wage loss, inability to earn and the pain and suffering. The manufacturing companies continued representing the products even though there were claims and reports about the severities of mesh implications. They failed to conduct careful clinical research before releasing them into the market.
