Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery Complications Lawyers

Huntington Medical Malpractice Attorneys

Pelvic organ prolapse occurs when the weakening of the muscles and ligaments that support the pelvic organs leads to the organs slipping out of place. Surgery can be done in order to ease the symptoms and issues related to the prolapse, but it is not always helpful.

Our firm has over 50 years of experience handling medical malpractice and personal injury issues. This experience allows us to efficiently investigate the case and aggressively stand up for your rights.

Potential Complications

Women may experience a variety of complications from pelvic organ prolapse surgery, including:

• Excessive pain
• Bleeding
• Scarring
• Continued urinary issues

Any of these complications can lead to future surgeries and the possible removal of organs. If the complications were caused by surgical errors or doctor error, we may be able to take action on your behalf for the negligence that was committed.

Avaulta Lawsuits

One of the strategies that doctors have employed to deal with pelvic organ prolapse is to implant a device called Avaulta transvaginal surgical mesh, made by the manufacturer Bard. While seemingly helpful, it has been discovered that these Avaulta devices are causing serious internal injuries and complications for many women who have received these devices.

If you have experienced complications from an Avaulta device, our attorneys can meet with you to discuss the potential for a lawsuit on your behalf. Though a formal recall hasn't been initiated regarding the surgical mesh, the FDA has issued numerous warnings to doctors and patients.
