Transvaginal mesh is a procedure used to treat pelvic organ prolapse, a condition where the pelvic organs slip and hit the vaginal wall due to muscles and tissue being weaken by various causes, the most common being pregnancy. Many women have received vaginal mesh implants and unfortunately, a large number of them have experienced painful and damaging complications. These unfortunate experiences have been backed-up by scientific studies conducted by the Food and Drug Administration that have linked transvaginal mesh to high risks of injuries, which can lead to severe pain and permanent damages. Most women are treated for pelvic organ prolapse after childbirth, when the ligaments and muscle tissue are weakened and can’t support the pelvic organs. In order to reinforce the weakened vaginal wall and support bulging organs, mesh is inserted using small stitches in the vaginal wall. Patients that have opted for transvaginal mesh implantation can experience injuries such as vaginal tissue and mesh erosion, urinary problems, bladder, bowel, blood vessel perforation, vaginal shrinking, pain and infections. Those who have suffered injuries after the implantation of surgical mesh should file a lawsuit and hope they will receive proper compensation to cover all the damages the treatment procedure has caused them. An experienced attorney will be of great help in the quest to prove the product’s fault in the development of your injuries. Before looking for a lawyer make sure he is specialized in this field of law and has the right experience and determination to win your case and obtain proper compensation. Compensation will depend on the amount of damages you have sustained after the surgery, any lost wages, medical bills and the pain and suffering involved. Your lawyer will have to bring undeniable medical evidence that the procedure is not safe and has caused you severe injuries that have influenced negatively your life experience and even severely threaten your life.
