Nexus Legal Cash, the lawsuit loan company, announced today that a verdict has been reached in the much anticipated transvaginal mesh lawsuit case against Johnson & Johnson's Ethicon Unit in the amount of $ 3.35 Million. The case, Gross V. Johnson & Johnson, Ethicon, et al served to highlight, if nothing, the depth, scope and seriousness of the transvaginal mesh litigation and what lies ahead.

Transvaginal Mesh is a type of surgical mesh that is used in women to treat pelvic prolapse, bladder prolapse, and similar problems. The transvaginal mesh is implanted in the vagina and used to create what is referred to as a a pelvic sling or bladder sling. It is also used to help reinforce the vaginal wall. The mesh has been used extensively and therefore awareness will build as more women come forward.

However, the mesh has proven itself to be more harm than good. Of the thousands that have been implanted with with the mesh, an in ordinate amount have succumbed to complications arising directly and indirectly form the devices. Some suffer protrusion through the vaginal wall and through the shin. Other suffer from erosion and disintegration of the device. Other risks that have been linked to the defective transvaginal devices include, but are certainly not limited to the following: pelvic pain, infection, bleeding, urinary leakage, pain during sexual intercourse, recurrence of prolapse, organ perforation, poisoning, and diminished capacity for activities of daily life.
