Zimmer Durom Cup Side Effects

The Zimmer Durom Cup is a faulty hip implant component used in hip replacement surgery. Patients who had a hip replacement between 2006 and July 2008 should be on the lookout for the following Zimmer Durom Cup side effects:

Pain in hip, especially when walking or sitting
Reduced range of motion
Pain or discomfort when rotating the joint
An uncomfortable feeling in the hip, as if the joint is slipping

These side effects can occur 90 days or more after the surgery. If you experience any of these side effects, it is important to see your doctor right away to see if you were implanted with the Zimmer Durom Cup. If so, there is a chance that the device was unable to adhere to the hipbone and has slipped out of place. In most cases, additional surgery to remove the device and replace it with a different cup is the only way you will be able to regain full use of your leg and walk normally.

Zimmer Durom Cup Lawsuits

Doctors began to notice problems with the Zimmer Durom Cup shortly after it was released to the market. Patients would return to the doctor’s office complaining of intense pain and sudden limited mobility. After taking x-rays of the affected area, doctors saw that the cup had slipped out of place. Upon further inspection, they concluded that the surface of the cup did not allow the surgical cement to fully adhere the device to the hip joint of patients.

Concerned, doctors complained to the manufacturer, Zimmer Holdings, Inc., who in turn stopped selling the product for a time. However, it was re-released to the market after the manufacturer concluded that the product’s inability to connect to the bone was the result of the doctors not implanting the device correctly.

Some patients who have been affected by a faulty Zimmer Durom Cup have contacted personal injury lawyers experienced in recouping losses for medical bills and lost wages, among other damages for those impacted by a medical device failure. Forming class-action lawsuits nationwide, injured patients are seeking damages and compensation for their pain and suffering.
