STRYKER REJUVENATE HIP IMPLANT RECALLED | West Palm Beach Personal Injury Attorneys Blog.

By Ami Romanelli posted in Products liability on Tuesday, June 26, 2012

The Stryker Rejuvenate has been recalled in Canada. Recalled products include all series of the following Stryker Implants:

A) Rejuvenate Modular Neck, 0 DEG

B) Rejuvenate Modular Neck, 8 DEG

C) Rejuvenate Modular Neck, 16 DEG

D) Rejuvenate SPT Modular Stem, Straight Press-Fit Texture TMFZ

As a result of the recall Stryker Orthopedics has updated the instructions for use for the Rejuvenate Modular Hip System. This recall is based on a reportedly significant rate for revisions potentially associated with fretting and/or corrosion at or about the modular neck junction. Stryker Rejuvenate lawyers, Babbitt Johnson Osborne & LeClainche have received an influx of calls nationwide from injured individuals who have received a Stryker Rejuvenate Hip Implant.

The Stryker Rejuvenate lawyers at Babbitt Johnson Osborne & LeClainche, P.A. are reviewing potential cases for individuals who know they received the hip implant component, or suspect that may have, and suffered:

• Unexplained hip pain more than three months after hip replacement

• Loosening of their artificial hip implant

• Hip replacement revision surgery

Potential Stryker Rejuvenate lawsuits are being reviewed throughout the United States. Because many hip replacement patients are unaware of the type of implant used, cases are being investigated for any individuals who have experienced problems after a surgery. There are no fees or expenses unless a recovery is obtained
