You may have felt very alone and a unique case after your surgery to implant transvaginal mesh went all wrong, but the figures say different. It is believed that a staggering 15 per cent of women who undergo this kind of surgery end up with complications within 3 short months. In recent years over 4,000 cases of injury as a result of transvaginal mesh have been reported.

All the complications are very uncomfortable and some are pretty serious.

The big revelation is that the companies (about 9) that have been issuing the mesh have been doing so without revealing the possible complications or giving the necessary warnings to enable doctors and patients to make the right decision for individual cases when it comes to this kind of surgical treatment. In fact the FDA have now issued an official statement warning that the risk of transvaginal mesh is so serious that alternative treatments should be found. The situation currently is that pelvic organ prolapsed is no longer treated with vaginal mesh.

Actually it has been clearly established that it is not the surgery that causes problems for women but the mesh that leads to all kind of problems like infection, bacteria build up, eroded mesh, urinary problems, severe pain, bleeding amongst a host of other horrible difficulties.

Apart from the pain and all kinds of discomfort these complications are a big financial strain as patients scramble for ways to treat them or at the very least bring them under control. Why do you need to shoulder the responsibility of something that is somebody else’s fault? Why not hire an attorney to file a transvaginal mesh lawsuit on your behalf? The good news is that considering the circumstances surrounding this kind of treatment it will be very easy for you to win the substantial settlement that you deserve to help you partly ease all the pain and inconvenience that you have had to go through.

There are a couple of different names that people use to refer to transvaginal mesh. This includes pelvic sling, vaginal mesh and bladder mesh. All these terms mean the same thing. The pads used in the procedure inside the body are the cause of all the trouble. They have caused some serious internal damage and injury to patients who had this vaginal surgery. Yet the manufacturers have not given the warnings that are legally required for this kind of treatment. What this has meant is that doctors and patients have been unable to do the correct risk assessment. This is the reason why you are bound to receive substantial compensation for your current condition. Money to partially relieve all the stress, loss of work time and possibly income and payment of medical bills amongst other consequences of this negligence of the manufacturers of the pads.

What your lawyer will actually help you is file for a defective medical device lawsuit. The reality is that you went through a highly risky surgical procedure without being informed of danger you were putting yourself into. A good lawyer who mostly handles defective medical product liability is guaranteed to give you pretty high chances of winning a substantial settlement in your transvaginal mesh lawsuit.
