The Food and Drug Administration recently warned healthcare providers about complications arising from different surgeries such as the cystocele mesh repair. This is one of the many types of surgery performed in women suffering from one of the types of pelvic organs prolapse and it represents the only possible treatment, especially if the condition is a severe one! The cystocele is also referred to as ”fallen bladder” and it appears due to childbirth, previous surgeries or heavy lifting. All these contribute to the occurrence of the condition. What happens when a cystocele prolapse appears? Well, the answer is a very simple one: the muscles between the vagina and the bladder weaken and stretch, so the sustain system that should hold the bladder in its right place becomes unable to do it. The surgery tries to reform the sustain system, but due to faulty meshes, complications might appear. This is how the manufacturing companies became the subject of hundreds of lawsuits: they released faulty meshes on the market.
