You could be in danger of serious injury if you were one of the many patients who had a Zimmer Kinectiv hip replacement implant surgery, including the Zimmer® M/L Taper Prosthesis with Kinectiv Technology. Complications have been reported related to the device’s metal-on-metal design which has led to health problems in some patients. If you have experienced problems, call the personal injury lawyer at the McGartland Law Firm, PLLC to see if you have a case for compensation.
For over 25 years, our personal injury firm has been advocating for the rights of those harmed by dangerous or defective medical devices. We believe that innocent consumers deserve to be compensated fairly for suffering when manufacturers put profits before patients. Attorney Michael P. McGartland is experienced and has a track-record of success, having been listed in Super Lawyers multiple times and is a member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum®.
Experiencing hip implant complications? Take action today!
The Zimmer Kinectiv modular-neck technology allows for a surgeon to custom fit the hip implant to the patient’s anatomy. Recently, there have been problems with corrosion reported where the modular neck fits into the body of the femoral stem, causing harm to the patient.
Complications from the implant include:
Inflammation including redness, tenderness, swelling, warmth
Premature wearing of the articular surfaces causing loosening and joint dislocation
Severe pain and inflammation caused by metal debris or metallosis, or metal poisoning
Bone fractures especially in post-menopausal females
Revision surgery after device failure can cause further damage
Zimmer is obligated to provide patients with reliable and safe medical products. Our defective medical device attorney works to hold Zimmer liable for the damage caused by its products to recover financial compensation for injured consumers.
