Mesh is a synthetic material used to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) in women. There have been several reports by patients of complications around the world and some countries have suspended the use of vaginally inserted mesh for the treatment of SUI and POP due to complications. The aim of this document is to address the types of mesh procedures performed and provide terminology for mesh removal which can be easily understood by health-care providers and patients/consumers, avoiding miscommunication which has been highlighted in the Cumberlege report in the United Kingdom.
