Stryker Rejuvenate Hip Lawsuit

About Metal on Metal Hip Lawsuits

old person at the doctor

About 500,000 patients have been implanted with metal on metal hips. Manufacturers of these defective devices claimed that their products were safe and effective. Now, thousands of devices have been recalled because they cause injuries like metallosis, tissue damage, and bone and joint damage.

Individuals who received defective metal on metal hip implants have already been awarded billions of dollars for their pain, lost wages, and medical expenses. There are still many cases awaiting trial and more settlements are likely.

Hip Replacement Lawsuits claim that manufacturers:

  • Did not warn of the risks that metal on metal hips can pose
  • Did not properly test the hip implants before making them available for sale
  • Marketed the devices improperly, claiming they were safe, durable, and effective

Depuy Hip Replacements

Two devices from DePuy were recalled – the ASR XL and the ASR Hip Resurfacing System. DePuy paid $2.5 billion in 2013 to settle thousands of ASR hip lawsuits, and in March 2016, a jury awarded $502 million to patients who received the Pinnacle hip replacement. More lawsuits are awaiting trial for the same defective implant and more than $4 billion has been set aside to settle the remaining cases.

 

Stryker Hip Replacements

Stryker recalled its popular Rejuvenate hip replacement due to concerns about the safety of the hip implant. In November of 2014, Stryker agreed to settle thousands of claims for these devices for $1.43 billion. There are still many cases awaiting trial in court.
