Compensation for vaginal mesh surgical errors

Claiming compensation for pelvic mesh surgical errors can be one of the more common types of legal cases that we pursue for people affected by this longstanding issue. The use of mesh for treating things like Pelvic Organ prolapse has long been a controversial matter, and thousands of women around the world have suffered serious complications arising from its use.

There are many ways in which women can be adversely affected by having a pelvic mesh implant fitted. When it comes to surgical errors, this could come down to a lack of care and skill at the time of the procedure. As it happens, current guidelines stipulate that a lot of consideration needs to be taken into account when it comes to who can perform such procedures. They can be difficult and complex, and one small error could lead to the vaginal mesh device failing. If this happens, the patient could be left with lifelong consequences.

As such, if you have been injured as a result of problems with surgery, whether it is for implantation or the removal of a pelvic mesh device, you could be owed compensation. Whether this comes down to a general error made, or where the surgeon or their staff were not suitable to be carrying out the procedure, you may have a legal case.

Assessing your claim

It is not easy to know right away whether you have a valid vaginal mesh compensation claim to make or not. We usually need to carefully consider what has happened to you, and a lot of whether we can win a claim or not can come down to evidence.

There can be a fine line between proving that an error has occurred and the other side defending the case on the basis that you were the unfortunate victim of an inherent risk. Sometimes, we can only really know by pursuing a legal case, but we do need to risk assess the matter from the start.

We are happy to do this on a free and no-obligation basis when it comes to the claims assessment. Speak to the team here now for advice.
