When the pelvic organs in women begin to lose their strength, they run the risk of pushing through their allotted cavities inside the body. This protrusion of pelvic organs is known as pelvic organ prolapse, and is associated with numerous complications.

There are several different types of pelvic organ prolapse. Some of those types can include: protrusion of the bladder, protrusion of the rectum, and protrusion of the small intestine. All of these types can be extremely painful, and may require surgery.

When surgery is decided upon in these cases, transvaginal mesh patches may be used in order to repair these painful protrusions. These mesh patches have recently been connected to numerous complications that could harm a patient even further than the initial problem of pelvic organ prolapse.

If you underwent surgery that involved the use of transvaginal mesh, and you are now suffering from complications, please contact the AlloDerm lawyers of Williams Kherkher by calling 800-761-3187 today.
