Transvaginal Mesh

Representing Injury Victims Nationally

Transvaginal mesh is a medical device that is used in women to treat pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence. In pelvic organ prolapse, an organ in the pelvic area drops from the position where it should be and pushes against vaginal walls. This condition may result from muscle strain in childbirth or from surgery. The organs which may fall (prolapse) include the bladder, urethra, uterus, small bowel, vagina, and rectum. Transvaginal mesh devices or slings have been used to treat the condition through surgical implantation.

From 2005 to 2010, however, 3,875 injuries associated with the mesh implants have been reported to the FDA. Following this, the FDA issued warnings to potential patients about the associated risks of the implants, which include mesh erosion, vaginal tissue erosion, perforations of associated organs, infection, vaginal scarring, urinary problems, and a return of the prolapse or incontinence which the mesh was originally intended to handle.
