Thousands of women have a tragic and unfortunate thing in common: they’ve all suffered from the side effects of a transvaginal mesh (TVM) product. While health conditions vary, the most commonly experienced side effects include pelvic pain, mesh erosion, and the recurrence of incontinence or pelvic organ prolapse.
Many of these victims have decided to take legal action to defend their rights and protect other potential patients from harm. They’ve filed product liability lawsuits against TVM manufacturers such as Bard, Boston Scientific, and Johnson and Johnson.
These manufacturers spent years of time and millions of dollars designing these products. They also dedicated considerable resources testing and marketing TVM solutions. Despite this effort and the implicit recognition that they owed a duty of care to their customer, they failed to fulfill this duty, misrepresenting the risks of their products.
