on Jan 28th, 2012Vaginal Mesh Problems Result from Mesh Erosion
Women who have undergone pelvic organ prolapse repair surgery in the past are rightly alarmed by the news that complications from this surgery are becoming more and more common. Specifically, the FDA has identified that the use of surgical mesh in pelvic organ prolapse repair causes significant and lasting health problems in some women. Vaginal mesh problems are largely blamed on mesh erosion, where the substance begins to disintegrate and may either push through soft tissues in the vagina or actually break off and become lodged somewhere else inside the body. This condition leads to infection, bleeding, organ damage and extreme pain. Some surgical mesh implantations do not result in any of these conditions, but if you had pelvic organ prolapse repair surgery, it’s wise to be cognizant of the potential side effects that may develop over time. If you are suffering from these or other health problems, consult your doctor for medical care. Go to http://www.pelvicmeshlawyers.com to read more.
