Avaulta Mesh Problems Can Include Pain and Infection, Among Other Side Effects

Class Action.org has released a warning regarding Avaulta mesh problems, which can include pelvic pain, vaginal pain, mesh erosion, infection and urinary problems. These Avaulta mesh side effects are reportedly linked to a design defect, which may prevent the surrounding tissue from obtaining oxygen and nutrients. As a result, this may lead to impaired healing and other Avaulta mesh problems which necessitate further surgery.

Although an Avaulta recall has not been issued, the FDA brought attention to problems with surgical mesh systems in October 2008. In a public health advisory, the FDA alerted the public of complications associated with surgical mesh systems, which are designed to treat pelvic organ prolapse. Over a three-year period, the FDA received more than 1000 reports of surgical mesh problems from nine separate manufacturers, including C.R. Bard, which manufactures the Avaulta Solo, Avaulta Plus and Avaulta Biosynthetic. Some of the reported vaginal mesh side effects included pain; recurrence of pelvic organ prolapse; urinary problems; hardening of the mesh; and bowel, bladder and blood vessel perforation. In some instances, vaginal scarring and erosion of the mesh caused consistent discomfort and pain which led to a decrease in the patient’s quality of life. 

Several women have already filed Avaulta lawsuits to recover compensation for damages incurred as a result of the system’s side effects. These lawsuits allege that the manufacturer was negligent in designing the mesh and failed to warn patients and doctors of potential Avaulta mesh problems. If you have suffered from Avaulta mesh side effects, you may also be able to take legal action to collect compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages.
