The long-term effects of pelvic mesh remain a considerable concern, and this year’s changes to the guidelines surrounding the use of mesh implants has not been too helpful.
The pelvic mesh saga has been going on for over a decade now, and thousands of women have suffered problems and compilations. This has led to compensation claims being made around the world, including the clients we represent for cases here in the UK. Despite the problems many women have suffered from, mesh is still used for surgery, and people are still being harmed.
