reports, "Johnson & Johnson's Ethicon unit told a federal judge in
West Virginia it intends to stop selling four vaginal mesh implants after being
sued by more than 600 women who say the products caused internal injuries.
Johnson & Johnson said it has requested approval from the Food and Drug
Administration to stop 'commercializing' the devices." The company
"has asked the FDA for 120 days to end sales so it can 'notify its
customers and provide those hospitals and surgeons with sufficient time to
select alternative treatment options for their patients.'"
