DePuy Hip Lawsuit May Be an Option for Patients with Recalled ASR Hip Replacements

A DePuy hip lawsuit may be an option for patients who were implanted with the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System or the ASR Hip Resurfacing System, which were taken off the market in an August 2010 DePuy hip recall. A DePuy hip lawsuit would allow patients who were experiencing problems with the devices the opportunity to pursue compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering and other damages resulting from their hip implant complications. To find out if you may be able to participate in a DePuy hip lawsuit, visit http://www.classaction.org/depuy-asr-hip-implant.html and complete the free case evaluation form on the right. 

A DePuy hip lawsuit may be an option for ASR recipients in light of the August 2010 DePuy hip recall. In the DePuy hip implant recall, DePuy Orthopaedics voluntarily withdrew the ASR XL Acetabular System and the ASR Hip Resurfacing System after data revealed that more patients than expected experienced pain and other symptoms which led to a second hip replacement procedure, also known as a corrective surgery. According to data cited in the DePuy hip recall, approximately 12% of patients with the ASR resurfacing device and 13% of patients with the ASR total hip replacement needed a revision surgery. 

Due to the DePuy hip recall, patients who were implanted with the recalled ASR devices may be able to participate in a DePuy hip lawsuit. If you or a loved one experienced metal poisoning, hip implant failure or other DePuy hip problems, visit Class Action.org to find out if you have legal recourse. Those wishing to file a DePuy hip lawsuit have a time limit for filing claims, so do not hesitate in learning your legal rights today.
