More About Mesh Implants

Vaginal Mesh Implants can be made of synthetic or animal materials. Very often the mesh is made of a plastic called polypropylene. Vaginal Mesh Implants are typically used to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). However, these products are not always safe or reliable, and can cause serious complications. Thousands of women treated with Vaginal Mesh Implants have filed serious complaints related to their mesh implant.

Signs & Symptoms

Women with Vaginal Mesh Implants often complain of experiencing vaginal pains, urinary problems, hardening of the vaginal walls, sexual difficulty, infection, injury to nearby organs, hematomas, neuro-muscular problems, nerve damage, and erosion of the mesh into vagina. If erosion of the mesh occurs, multiple surgeries are often required to fix the problem, and there are no guarantees that the mesh will not erode yet again. Sometimes women even complained of having a recurrence of the prolapse or incontinence that the mesh was meant to correct. In 2011, the FDA reported that it had received over 4,000 reports of complications connected to vaginal mesh in the last six years, and warned patients that complications from this procedure were not rare.

Diagnosis

In order to determine if there is a complication with your Vaginal Mesh Implant, you will have to visit a medical professional, such as a specialist called an urogynecologist. In order to diagnose the complication, surgery will be conducted to discover the issue and eventually to work towards correcting it. Removal of Vaginal Mesh Implants is extremely difficult, because the mesh was meant to stay in the body as a permanent fixture, and because of this the removal often and revision often takes multiple surgeries.
