In my opinion, you can only win a case against them if you can show that they performed the procedure negligently. The consent you signed probably states that you inderstood that a small percentage of such procedures fail. If you can show that the procedure was negligently performed, you may have a case that you can pursue. There is a 3-year statute of limitations for bringing a medical negligence lawsuit in Wisconsin.
