Transvaginal Mesh Side Effects
Pelvic mesh devices are surgically implanted in order to correct pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Thousands of female patients have undergone procedures involving TVM implants; however, recent years have seen distressing reports of severe complications from such treatments, resulting in one in ten women suffering pelvic mesh issues. The FDA has even warned the public on several occasions to be aware of the risks involving TVM implants.
The following are the potential injuries or side effects associated with defective pelvic mesh products:
- Vaginal tissue erosion
- Chronic vaginal drainage
- Painful sexual intercourse
- Urinary issues
- Perforations of bladder, blood vessels, or bowel
- Reoccurrence of POP or SUI
- Vaginal bleeding, infections, and scarring
