At last, the FDA has finalized its proposals from April of 2014 to reclassify certain transvaginal mesh implant devices from Class II medical devices to Class III devices.

The reclassification only applies to transvaginal mesh used to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and does not include transvaginal mesh sling products implanted for the treatment of stress urinary incontinence.
