Zimmer Durom Cup

A Zimmer Durom Cup lawyer can stand up for you and protect your rights

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 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.
