The first successful group claim in England has led to settlements for 140 women who suffered traumatic complications from vaginal mesh implants, reflecting widespread medical negligence.
Women implanted with transvaginal mesh have experienced years of chronic pain and suffering, with many unable to claim due to strict time limits preventing justice.
The implants, used to treat stress urinary incontinence and prolapse, caused severe complications that led to revision surgeries and ongoing health issues for many patients.
Concerns over vaginal mesh complications led to a suspension in its use across the UK and highlighted a culture of medical misogyny within the healthcare system.
