Hip Replacement By Sulzer
US, Canada and Puerto Rico
The time for filing claims against Sulzer Orthopedics has expired, but Balkin & Eisbrouch, LLC has successfully settled dozens of cases on behalf of its clients who were injured by defective hip replacements.
Sulzer Orthopedics has recalled its Inter-Op acetabular shell manufactured in the United States. Most of the recalled shells were produced after October 1999. A limited number of recalled shells were produced as early as June 1997.
During the manufacturing process, a mineral oil-based lubricant was used on the product, and in some cases this residue was not completely removed. Independent scientists have shown that this residue may cause adverse reactions in the body that can lead to loosening of the shell.
The products affected by this voluntary recall are listed below:
