C.R. Bard Inc. agreed to pay more than $200 million to resolve at least 3,000 cases by women injured by the company’s vaginal-mesh inserts, five people familiar with the accord said.
The settlement resolves about a fifth of the outstanding suits related to the implants, which bolster sagging organs and treat incontinence. For at least five years, women have said the devices shrink once they’re implanted, damaging organs and causing crippling pain.
