Another 378 women who were operated on by the NHS will also be removing their implants.
In total, nearly 7,800 women have contacted the NHS with a view to remove their implants if they are found defective. The consultations and scans have cost the NHS around £850,000 and the bill is expected to rise by an additional £901,000 when all of the 607 women undergo surgeries.
