Wright & Schulte LLC Files Transvaginal Mesh Lawsuit on Behalf of Woman Allegedly Injured by Align Urethral Support System

Date:12/10/2012

tober 20, 2008, the FDA issued a Public Heath Notification that described over 1,000 complaints that had been reported over a three year period relating to transvaginal mesh products. By the time the agency issued a second Public Health Notification on July 13, 2011, it had received an additional 2,864 reports of complications associated with the use of transvaginal mesh. The agency concluded that serious injuries associated with surgical mesh for transvaginal repair of pelvic organ proplapse, including neuromuscular problems, vaginal scarring/shrinkage and emotional problems, were “not rare”. The FDA further concluded that transvaginal POP repair with mesh “does not improve symptomatic results or quality of life over traditional non mesh repair.”

In addition to the litigation involving C.R. Bard, four other transvaginal mesh multidistrict litigations are pending in the Southern District of West Virginia before Judge Joseph R. Goodwin, including : In re: Ethicon, Inc., Pelvic Repair System Products Liability Litigation (MDL No. 2327), In re: American Medical Systems, Inc., Pelvic Repair Systems Products Liability Litigation (MDL No. 2325); In re: Boston Scientific Corp., Pelvic Repair Systems Products Liability Litigation (MDL No. 2326); and In Re Coloplast Corp. Pelvic Support Systems Products Liability Litigation. Additional transvaginal mesh lawsuits have also been filed in state courts throughout the U.S. This past July, a California jury awarded $5.5 million to a woman who claimed to have suffered serious injuries from a C.R. Bard transvaginal mesh device
