Hip Replacement Lawsuit

If you are in need of a new hip replacement because your current DePuy hip implant has failed, it is likely that you already are experiencing unnecessary pain. Sometimes the medical devices we trust to remedy our adverse health situations end up inflicting more pain than we originally suffered. Now the questions are:

  • What am I supposed to do now?
  • How do I afford the additional medical bills this hip implant has caused?

The diligent MDL attorneys of Zoll & Kranz, LLC may be able to help you pursue compensation in a hip replacement lawsuit from negligent hip implant manufacturers, such as Johnson & Johnson and the Stryker Corporation. Several of their devices were recalled due to a higher-than-normal number of premature failures, as well as causing other serious side effects. If you are unsure as to what type of hip implant device you received or if it has been recalled, contact us today.

Zoll & Kranz, LLC defective hip replacement attorney Michelle Kranz is liaison counsel for the DePuy ASR litigation. Recently there has been a settlement agreement for the DePuy ASR hip implant recall.

What Metal Hip Implant Models are Involved in Hip Replacement Lawsuits?

Patients who choose to receive a metal hip replacement device do so in order to live a fuller and more active life. When these implants fail, their quality of life also suffers.

Listed below are some of the DePuy hip implant models, among others, that our firm has closely watched since the first medical claims of debilitating side effects surfaced:

  • DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System
  • DePuy ASR Hip Resurfacing System
  • Biomet M2A Magnum
  • Stryker Rejuvenate
  • Stryker AGB II
  • Stryker LFIT™ CoCr V40™ Femoral Heads

If you or a loved one received one of the above defective products, it may be helpful if a defective medical device attorney handles your claim against these negligent pharmaceutical companies to make sure your family recovers the most available compensation.

What Types of Health Risks are Associated with Defective Hip Implant Models

In addition to the need for multiple revision surgeries, these devices may also cause individuals to suffer from a wide range of health risks, such as:

  • Pain
  • Swelling
  • Tissue damage
  • Immobility
  • Pseudotumors
  • Difficulty standing
  • Loosening of the device
  • Metallosis, or metal poisoning
