Patients who have been implanted with the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System or the ASR Hip Resurfacing System may be able to file a claim to recover financial compensation due to a recent DePuy hip recall. Even if you have not experienced signs of DePuy hip failure or implant loosening, you may still qualify for DePuy hip litigation due to metallosis, a reaction which may develop, with or without symptoms, in some patients as the metal components wear.

Recipients of the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System or the ASR Hip Resurfacing System may eligible for legal recourse due to the
DePuy hip recall, which was issued in August 2010. The DePuy hip recall was issued after data revealed that more patients than expected who received these hip replacement systems required a second hip implant procedure. Five years after implantation, approximately 12% of patients with the ASR resurfacing device and 13% of patients with the ASR total hip replacement required a second hip procedure, also known as revision surgery. Pain, swelling and difficulty walking were among the symptoms reported by patients who experienced
DePuy hip problems within the first five years and needed revision surgery.
Patients implanted with a recalled DePuy hip implant may still be at risk for problems related to the release of small particles from the metal-on-metal devices, even if they have not experienced pain or other symptoms. Therefore, if you have received an implant involved in the DePuy hip replacement recall, do not wait until you experience symptoms of DePuy hip problems to learn your legal rights.
