In July 2008, orthopedic device manufacturer, Zimmer Holdings, Inc. temporarily suspended their distribution and marketing of its Durom Acetabular Hip Replacement Component (known as the “Durom Cup”) in response to an overwhelming number of complaints of device failure. Doctors have reported a number of problems with the artificial hip replacement component, which have resulted in devastating pain and the need for additional surgeries for many patients. Potential lawsuits are being investigated on behalf of individuals who have experienced issues with the Zimmer Durom Cup. If you or a loved one has received a Durom Cup hip implant within the last three years, contact a Hodes Milman attorney for a free consultation.
