Under the law, money damages are by far the most common remedy when someone experiences an injury to his or her rights. Typically, the remedy and the injury are roughly proportional, although that’s not necessarily the case with punitive damages.
For thousands of women who suffered pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI), their transvaginal mesh surgery may have unexpectedly become a violation of their rights. What rights might have been violated? Women have the right to know what risks they accept when they submit to a surgery or medical procedure. The maker of transvaginal mesh products, however, may have dramatically underrepresented the likelihood that they might suffer complication, including unexpected and unnecessary pain and discomfort. As a result, many patients may have a right to compensation.
