Boston Scientific Speaks Out About Pelvic Mesh Controversy

It has been an interesting week for Boston Scientific, but not for the reasons you might think.

Yes, the company had to go on the defensive this week after CBS aired a 60 Minutes report raising concern over its transvaginal mesh products. The report accused Boston Scientific of buying counterfeit materials from a Chinese supplier to make the mesh devices. But the company has also received a show of customer support, said Dave Pierce, president of Boston Scientific's urology and pelvic health division.
