Hip replacement surgery patients who received the Zimmer Durom cup component may be entitled to compensation due to defects. The Durom hip cup, which is a hip implant component manufactured by Zimmer Holdings Ltd., was first used in 2006. Since then roughly 12,000 patients have received Durom hip cups as part of hip replacement surgery.
Some Zimmer Durom cup patients have apparently experienced a high failure rate and needed a revision, or second surgery. Reports of devastating pain after Zimmer Durom cup surgery have also surfaced. With concerns over the safety of the device, Zimmer Holdings suspended sales in July 2008.

The Zimmer Durom cup hip implant device is among several hip and knee replacement products that have come under fire for possible defects. Other products include:
The Durom Cup was designed for use by young, active patients who were expected to outlive conventional hip replacement. In 5.7 percent of the cases, doctors needed to perform further surgery and revision, according to Zimmer.
A surgeon determined that the socket was separating from the bone instead of fusing with the bone, as it was supposed to do. The defect led to severe pain for the patients.
If you or a loved one experienced any adverse side effects from the Zimmer Durom Cup, you may be able to pursue a defective product claim. Contact Hansen Dirani & Associates to schedule a free consultation. Call 877-583-0700 or contact an Oklahoma personal injury lawyer online today.
