Vaginal Mesh Litigations
According to court records, at least 1,835 vaginal mesh lawsuits have been filed against C.R. Bard in Bergen County Superior Court. The Ethicon multicounty litigation includes at least 8,100 lawsuits. All of these complaints allege that pelvic mesh products marketed by C.R. Bard and Ethicon were defectively designed and manufactured, and placed recipients at risk for mesh erosion, organ damage, chronic pain, infection, scarring and other serious vaginal mesh complications. The companies are also accused of failing to conduct sufficient testing to ensure the safety and efficacy of these products, and of failing to provide doctors and patients with adequate warnings regarding their risks.
