Lawsuit for Transvaginal Mesh Complications

Transvaginal mesh implants are medical devices used to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in women. The manufacturing companies demanded this meshes as a better alternative than the existing implant surgery procedure. Given the scope of faster recovery and lesser complications involved, mesh implant grew to be a popular choice for POP and SUI treatment in women.


However, as the old saying goes, all that glitters is not gold. The hazardous side effects of the implant surgery were not known to the FDA who declared these devices as a safe medical product. With thousands of complaints gushing in from the patients probed the FDA to look into the matter and see the darker side of the story. The manufacturing companies, clearly, did not inform the patients or the physicians about the harmful side effects of the devices.

As per the transvaginal mesh lawsuit, patients can demand a financial damage award or expenses for the future medical bills if they have ever:

  • faced mesh erosion
  • urinary tract problems
  • recurrent prolapse and inconsistency
  • chronic pain in the abdomen and surgical site
  • painful intercourse

Mesh erosion is one of the most common yet harmful side effects of the implant surgery, and if left untreated can lead to a severe bladder infection or more. The fragile mesh particles might migrate to different parts of the bladder and bowel region causing chronic pain, infection, bleeding or even nerve damage.

The corrective surgeries involved can cause major psychological meltdown in a woman given the degraded quality of everyday life. The lawsuits accuse the companies of concealing the mesh insertion side effects as well as misbranding the product as a safe medical product. Furthermore, they did not use the promised quality materials to manufacture the mesh which caused irritation and inflammation in the vaginal area. Lastly, the lawsuit claims that the companies did not conduct a proper clinical trial to look for possible complications.
