A prominent vaginal mesh campaigner has died from sepsis which was triggered by her controversial implant, it has been reported.

Christina Brajcic, 42, from Ontario, Canada, passed away on Thursday following a four-year battle with persistent infections – as a result of her mesh.

During her final few months, she posted an array of videos detailing her struggle with the scandal-hit devices on her Facebook page. 

Tributes have flooded in for the ‘courageous’ interior designer, who helped to raise awareness of the ‘catastrophic’ mesh, which leaves many in crippling pain. 

The implants, which can shrink, twist, curl and cut through internal tissue, have ruined the lives of thousands of women, leaving some on the brink of suicide. 

Ms Brajcic’s death follows landmark moves by English and Australian health officials to recommend the controversial implants should no longer be used.
