Women in Scotland who underwent vaginal mesh procedures for stress urinary incontinence were given inaccurate information and were not told of the risks of the surgery, a case review ordered by the Scottish government has concluded.1

The Transvaginal Mesh Case Record Review, moderated by Alison Britton, professor of healthcare and medical law at Glasgow Caledonian University, analysed in depth more than 40 000 pages of records from 18 women who suffered life changing effects from the surgery. One patient said, “My pain never goes. I’ve always got pain in my groin, my back, and nerve damage in my legs.”
