The experienced attorneys at Graves McLain are no strangers to product liability cases.
We represent many victims of defective products, including those who have suffered due to malfunctioning metal-on-metal (MoM) hip replacement systems.
Biomet is yet another international MoM manufacturer that is tied up in litigation because of its faulty M2a Magnum Hip System.
Biomet deceived physicians and patients by marketing this product as having better durability, greater resistance to wear, and improved implant stability when in reality, the M2a Magnum Hip System actually has a high risk of failure.
Like many metal-on-metal hip replacement systems, Biomet’s M2a Magnum Hip System has been proved to deteriorate over time, causing metal shards to flake off and enter the hips surrounding tissues and one’s bloodstream.
Despite the serious health issues, such as metal toxicity in the bloodstream, devices like Biomet’s M2a Magnum Hip System remain on the market. Due to the overwhelming health concerns and tremendous pain and suffering experienced by recipients of Biomet’s MoM hip replacement systems, hundreds of consumers have filed lawsuits to hold Biomet accountable.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reports that in 2011 MoM devices were linked to more than 12,000 adverse medical events.
The most commonly reported problem with all-metal implants was the need for revision surgeries. The FDA has issued safety alerts about the potential risks of Biomet’s M2a Magnum Hip System which also calls for more in-depth monitoring of the device.
In October 2012, a federal judicial panel centralized federal Biomet M2a Magnum hip implant lawsuits. In February 2014, Biomet agreed to settle all of the consolidated federal lawsuits for a combined $56 million.
Manufacturers are legally obligated to sufficiently design and test their products to ensure their safety. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. Many recipients of these MoM hip systems suffer from debilitating pain, soreness, discomfort, loss of mobility, and dysfunction.
If you or a loved one has been injured by Biomet’s M2a Magnum Hip System, you may be eligible to receive compensation.
