TransVaginal Mesh is mainly used for treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and
stress urinary incontinence. Recent medical studies confirm that Transvaginal Mesh
and Pelvic and Bladder Supports and Bladder Sling products have resulted in serious
complications.
An FDA review of scientific literature suggests that many patients who undergo Transvaginal
pelvic organ prolapsed repair with mesh are exposed to additional risks compared
with patients who undergo pelvic organ prolapse repair with stitches alone. Although
mesh often corrected anatomy, there was no evidence that mesh provided any greater
clinical benefit than nonmesh surgeries.
The study showed that complications include a dangerous, painful condition known
as "erosion." Erosion is a term used to describe a condition where the
skin splits and the mesh protrudes.
