Transvaginal Mesh, Vaginal Mesh, Pelvic Mesh
Transvaginal mesh is used in the transvaginal repair of a condition called pelvic organ prolapse (POP), or to surgically treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Pelvic organ prolapse is a condition that occurs when one of the pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, bowel or rectum, drops from the normal position and pushes against the wall of the vagina. This happens when the muscles and connective tissues holding the organs in place are stressed and weakened over time. When treating pelvic organ prolapse, physicians often permanently implant the mesh in order to hold pelvic organs in place. When treating stress urinary incontinence (SUI), physicians often use the mesh to support the urethra or neck of the urinary bladder.
