Stryker hip implant lawsuitA new Stryker hip implant lawsuit has been added to the multidistrict litigation (MDL) consolidating together these various claims.

The MDL will make things easier for the courts to hear all the similar issues in the Stryker hip implant lawsuits.

Many of the plaintiffs who have chosen to file a Stryker hip implant lawsuit allege that the manufacturer should have known about defects or did know about defects but failed to disclose this information to the patients receiving this medical device.

Barbara D. is the latest patient to file a Stryker hip implant lawsuit alleging that the manufacturer caused her to suffer unnecessary and severe dangers.

The plaintiff says in her Stryker hip implant lawsuit that she was implanted with the Accolade TMZF femoral stem in April 2009 in Georgia.

The Stryker hip implant lawsuit explains that the plaintiff later had that femoral head explanted in March 2018 as a result of severe complications and pain.

The Stryker hip implant lawsuit says that Barbara D. suffered economic loss and injury to herself as a result of the manufacturer’s defects.

She is adding her Stryker hip implant lawsuit to the growing MDL based on allegations of manufacturing defects, defective design, negligence, failure to warn, breach of implied and express warranty, violation of the Massachusetts consumer protection act and violation of consumer fraud and deceptive trade practices laws.

Many patients who had the Stryker hip implants, the Stryker LFIT B40 femoral head products implanted in their body allege they later began to suffer serious side effects.

Some of those patients ultimately had to have the hip implant removed from their body due to the significant pain and problems.

Although the Stryker hip implant was intended to provide better mobility options, many of the patients who received it in surgery say they were were unable to move about their day as they expected and began to suffer other side effects.

Many of them have chosen to file a Stryker hip implant lawsuit because they believe that the manufacturer should have been responsible for informing them about the devastating and excruciating ailments that they were at risk of suffering.

Hip replacement surgery is typically scheduled for a patient when the implant is intended to increase functionality and improve a patient’s quality of life. However, many of the Stryker hip implants have been associated with serious side effects and pain.

Patients who intended to keep these hip implants for the long term say they have had to go back to their doctors to have the devices explanted because the pain and suffering often becomes unbearable.

If you suspect you have grounds to file a Stryker hip implant lawsuit because of severe complications or required revision surgery, you need to consider your options in terms of filing legal action.

Many injured implant recipients have chosen to use the courts to fight for compensation to cover additional medical bills and unnecessary pain and suffering.

The latest Stryker Hip Implant Lawsuit is Case No. 1:18-cv-11696-IT, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.
