Case Details
Obtained a successful settlement in a products liability action from a national manufacturer of medical devices including artificial hip replacement systems designed and manufactured by DePuy, Inc., the makers of ASR metal-on-metal hip products. The flawed design of this artificial hip included a metal femoral head (ball) connected to a metal acetabular cup (socket). The grinding of the ball on the surface of the socket through foreseeable daily use created an unstable interface, causing the hip implant to fail.
Additional Notes
Successful settlement obtained.
