The lawyers at Triscaro & Associates are currently reviewing claims relating to vaginal mesh in Cleveland Ohio and throughout the U.S. Certain transvaginal mesh produces, which have been uses in surgeries to treat incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, have been shown to cause numerous complications.
In 2011, the FDA issued a warning related to the health risks associated with vaginal mesh. This warning was partly based upon a New England Journal of Medicine study that found that the use of vaginal mesh is not more effective than traditional lower risk procedures to treat incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.
Dangerous side effects of vaginal mesh products can include:
- Infection
- Pain during intercourse
- Erosion of the vagina
- Internal bleeding
- Incontinence
- Recurrance of pelvic organ prolapse
- Erosion of the vagina
Women that have been treated with transvaginal mesh products have:
- 7X more likely to experience a bladder perforation during surgery
- 2X more likely to experience urinary incontinence
- More likely to have additional procedures due to failure of the mesh
