Case is brought by 2,700 women over implants made by French company and certified as safe by German firm
Thousands of victims of defective breast implants manufactured by a French company and certified as safe by the German firm TÜV Rheinland should receive compensation, a Paris court of appeal has ruled.
The case was brought by 2,700 women who said they had suffered long-term physical and mental health problems after receiving the implants filled with cheap, industrial-grade silicone not cleared for human use.
