Have You Suffered from a Defective DePuy or Stryker Hip Implant?
For many people, having hip surgery is a painful, but often necessary procedure that they must endure. While it is never something that is enjoyable, when carried out by skilled medical professionals with comprehensive care, it is often a rewarding experience. After healing, you can once again be given a range of mobility that was denied to you before the surgery. This, however, is not always the case.
Thanks to defective DePuy hip implants on the market, many have suffered unnecessarily. There has been a worldwide recall of two defective hip implant devices issued by DePuy Orthopaedics, the ASR XL Acetabular System and the ASR XL Acetabular System. In August 2016, Stryker Orthopaedics issued a recall of the Stryker LFIT V40 hip implants because of defective femoral heads in devices manufactured before 2011.
