Federal Lawsuits Involving Defective Hip Replacement Parts Consolidated In Ohio
Date:12/6/2010

nes is serving on the Plaintiffs Steering Committee (PSC) for that MDL.

The recall involves the ASR XL Acetabular and ASR Resurfacing systems. Patients who received the defective hip replacement parts from DePuy may experience symptoms including pain, swelling and trouble walking. These symptoms may indicate serious problems such as the hip implant loosening from the bone, fracturing the bone to which it is attached, or dislocating. However, even people who are not currently experiencing symptoms may be at risk. The recalled part uses metal-on-metal parts to reduce wear. However, the friction between these parts may release particles of toxic heavy metals into the tissue and bloodstream, causing metal poisoning. This can result in serious injury, including tumors, neurological problems and heart failure.
