Transvaginal Mesh
Transvaginal mesh is a net-like implant used to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Doctors rely on transvaginal mesh to reinforce a weakened vaginal wall or support the urethra or bladder neck.
Complications from surgical mesh used in transvaginal pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair include vaginal mesh erosion, pain and organ perforation. The Food and Drug Administration in 2016 reclassified mesh for transvaginal POP repair as a high-risk device and has said complications are “not rare.” In April 2019, the FDA ordered all manufacturers to stop selling POP mesh because they had not proven its safety or effectiveness.
Transvaginal mesh lawsuits have alleged that the devices caused complications including pain, bleeding, infection, organ perforation and autoimmune problems.
