Settlement amount offered by Boston Scientific for transvaginal mesh injuries is cited to fall short by a plaintiff when scaled with the collateral damage she suffered due to the injuries. In October of 2017, the company without any admission or concession of any liability or wrongdoing announced a settlement to resolve nearly 44,000 transvaginal mesh cases and claims filed against it. MDL No. 2326, in re: Boston Scientific Corp. Pelvic Repair System Products Liability Litigation was created in 2012 along with 6 other MDLs before U.S. District Judge Joseph R. Goodwin, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of West Virginia for handling TVM injury cases.
