In females, a vaginal mesh support may be used to repair pelvic organ prolapse, which often happens when pelvic internal organs fall out of place, by sewing the connective tissue within the vaginal wall muscle back together again.
How can TVM harm me?
TVM is reported to cause quite a few dangerous issues, such as reports of infection, pain, urinary problems and bowel, bladder or blood-vessel perforations. Some women have also described continued prolapse, issues with erosion, creating the need for additional surgery to try and remove the surgical mesh which eroded into the vagina.
The Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning against synthetic transvaginal mesh.
I’m not sure whether this was implanted during my pelvic organ prolapse surgery. What can I do?
Synthetic Transvaginal Mesh problems range from mesh erosion, pain, infection, bleeding, painful sexual intercourse, organ perforation, and urinary problems.
Patients who've had vaginal mesh surgery for pelvic organ prolapse are happy with their surgery and are not having problems or symptoms, do not need to take any action other than to make sure that they get regular check-ups with their physician.
Women with issues or side effects following a surgery need to notify theirhealth provider. If you are still concerned and not sure if your physician used a mesh and/or do not know what kind of mesh was used in your operation, do not hesitate to contact the health care provider who handled your surgery to ask any questions you might have. You might also contact a transvaginal mesh attorney to discuss your rights
I was recently diagnosed with pelvic organ prolapse and my doctor suggested transvaginal mesh as a treatment option. Just what should I do?
There are numerous treatment alternatives for pelvic organ prolapse. They include non-surgical options (for example native tissue or biologic graft vaginal repairs), abdominal or laparoscopic mesh procedures and transvaginal mesh placement. You should feel comfortable with your decision and make certain you completely fully grasp the risks involved.
