While a DePuy Pinnacle recall has not been issued, the hip implant lawyers working with Class Action.org would like to hear from patients experiencing problems with the metal-on-metal DePuy Pinnacle Acetabular Cup System. Since the August 2010 DePuy hip recall, which took the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular Hip System and ASR Hip Resurfacing System off the market, concerns have mounted over the DePuy Pinnacle hip. Although the Pinnacle system was not included in this or any DePuy hip recall, patients have reported complications with their metal-on-metal Pinnacle implants, and several Pinnacle hip lawsuits have been filed. If you have experienced
DePuy Pinnacle problems, visit http://www.classaction.org/depuy-pinnacle-acetabular-cup-system.html and complete the free case evaluation form to find out if you can file a claim to recover financial compensation.
When a metal liner is used, the DePuy Pinnacle hip may release tiny metal particles as its metal components rub against each other. While some patients do not react to these metal particles, other may develop metallosis, an inflammatory reaction to elevated metallic levels. Metal poisoning can damages muscles and other soft tissues and may cause
DePuy Pinnacle failure, often requiring a corrective surgery.
If you or a loved one has experienced high metallic levels or other DePuy Pinnacle hip problems, you may have legal recourse. Although a
DePuy Pinnacle recall has not been issued, patients experiencing problems with the metal-on-metal DePuy Pinnacle hips may still be able to participate in a DePuy Pinnacle lawsuit. Visit Class Action.org to learn more about DePuy Pinnacle problems and to receive a free evaluation of your case.
