Removal of Transvaginal Mesh Is Like a Chisel to Cement

Transvaginal mesh, a sling device used to support sagging organs, has caused suffering to thousands of women. Not only does this device cause pain and suffering after the implantation, but in many situations it is nearly impossible to remove. One news website quotes a Bay Area pelvic surgeon, Michael Thomas Margolis as he explains the removal with this analogy:
   

“Extirpation of vaginal mesh is akin to taking a hammer and chisel and trying to remove the rebar from a sidewalk while leaving the cement otherwise intact and not damaging the water mains and power line below. It is difficult if not impossible to remove all the mesh and do it safely.”

Corrective surgery may lessen the pain, but for many women who suffer from adverse effect from the Transvaginal mesh, they experience years of constant pain and suffering.
