Surgical Mesh & Transvaginal Mesh
A new FDA study indicates that the transvaginal mesh used in female surgeries for pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) may cause permanent injury to women rather than benefiting them. The FDA said. "There are clear risks associated with the transvaginal placement of mesh to treat POP." The FDA report documents also show that serious injuries from the transvaginal mesh are " not rare" and complications associated with surgical mesh treatment of pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence can have serious consequences. Surgeries for pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence that were performed without using the mesh had better outcomes. Women whom have had the mesh implanted have also been burdened with multiple follow up surgeries .

Topamax® Increases Risk of Cleft Palate Birth Defects
The FDA recently announced that new research has linked Topamax® (topiramate) to an increased risk of oral birth defects that include cleft palate. Topamax® (topiramate) is an anticonvulsant medication FDA-approved for use alone or with other medications to treat patients with epilepsy who have certain types of seizures. Use of Topamax® or its generic during pregnancy may cause debilitating oral malformations. The lawyers at Perdue Kidd & Vickery are reviewing potential claims for children who may be entitled to compensation through a Topamax cleft palate lawsuit.
