Knee Replacement Lawsuits
DePuy ATTUNE® Knee Replacement – Problems with ATTUNE include loosening of the tibial component at the implant-cement interface within the first two years after implant. Patients often present with pain on weight bearing, swelling, and decreased range of motion. Researchers believe that these failures are likely under reported.

More than twelve thousand patients who received DePuy’s ASR XL or Pinnacle metal-on-metal hip replacements have sued DePuy over their malfunction, alleging that the company knowingly sold defective and dangerous products. The devices release metal debris into surrounding tissue, leading to many different types of health issues and an extremely high failure rate. DePuy ultimately recalled its ASR hip systems, but the manufacturers allege they knew of its problems long beforehand and even actively worked to suppress evidence of malfunction. Other manufacturers have issued similar recalls. If you have had a Hip Replacement and think it may be giving you problems please contact us to see if it could be one of those on the Hip Replacement recall list.

Bone Cement Used in Knee Replacements

"I don't know why Some companies create Defective Medical Devices and Bad Drugs, I just know what to do about it." Bone Cement  – The type of bone cement used during knee replacement surgery affects the outcome of that surgery. Complications associated with knee replacements performed with high viscosity bone cement include loosening and de-bonding (where the implant fails to adhere to the cement interface on the shin or thigh bone), which requires revision surgery.

It is a medical device inserted into the inferior vena cava, a vein that carries blood from the body’s lower extremities and into the heart, this is done to help prevent pulmonary embolism and other dangerous blood clotting-related problems.
