Home Product Liability Transvaginal Mesh Litigation

Transvaginal Mesh Litigation

Introduced as a pelvic repair system, transvaginal mesh was intended to support weakened tissues in women with conditions like stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Rather than traditional open surgery, this mesh was implanted transvaginally, yet led to significant injuries for many. Studies reveal nearly 10 percent of women implanted with transvaginal mesh experienced severe complications, such as pain, nerve damage, infection, and, in some cases, required revision surgery.

In 2019, the FDA directed the discontinuation of transvaginal mesh in the U.S. due to these risks, with bans following globally. Lawsuits were filed against manufacturers including Ethicon, C.R. Bard, and Boston Scientific. These lawsuits ultimately led to numerous, extensive settlements which provided compensation for those impacted by transvaginal mesh complications.
