Another Transvaginal Mesh manufacturer, Endo International plc (Endo), announced this August that it was setting aside an additional $775 million rounding off to a near total of $2.6 billion to resolve the remaining 22,000 Transvaginal Mesh Multidistrict Litigation lawsuits pending in the US District Court of West Virginia. This amount was in addition to the millions the company had spent earlier to settle the cases.
TVM litigation cases are one of the largest mass torts. As of now, thousands of mesh lawsuits are consolidated in West Virginia federal court through seven multidistrict litigation (MDL) cases and the remaining are filed in the state courts in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
