Abstract

We present the case of a postmenopausal woman who developed bladder polyps leading to serious abdominal pain, dysuria with mucus and blood, and urinary incontinence after anterior vaginal wall repair using Avaulta anterior mesh (Bard®). All of these symptoms resolved after mesh removal. This case emphasizes that not all complications of mesh are known.
