subject: Contact An Experienced Attorney At Chandler, Mathis, & Zivley About A Lawsuit Related To The [print this page] The extremely high number of hip replacement problems related to the Zimmer Orthopedics Durom Cup implant isn't surprising to many in the medical community. Shortly after it was released, some doctors raised concerns about what they saw as a potential flaw in the design of the implant. This eventually led to a temporary suspension of sales of the device in association with a Zimmer hip recall in 2008. Subsequent research has shown that the Durom Cup doesn't bond with a patient's bone as it is designed to do and in many cases this results in a migration from the intended position. This prevents the Zimmer hip replacement from performing as it's supposed to and causes great pain to patients with the device.
After learning of the Zimmer hip recall, individuals that had had surgery for this device began to ask questions about why the company didn't identify these problems sooner. The hip replacement problems caused by the Durom Cup often necessitate patients go in for revision surgery to correct the issues they're having and alleviate the pain they're experiencing. For most of these individuals it's been just a short time since they had their original operation and so the thought of going under the knife again is very disheartening.
