Beginning in July 2003, DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc., a unit of the Johnson and Johnson Company, made available its ASR XL Acetabular Hip System and DePuy ASR Hip Resurfacing System, commonly referred to as the DePuy ASR Hip or the DePuy ASR Hip System. These are hip replacement devices that have been widely used throughout the world; it is currently estimated that over 90,000 individuals were given a DePuy hip replacement device to enhance their mobility. These hip replacement systems have exhibited a high rate of failure, and thousands of patients who have received these DePuy hip replacement devices will have to undergo a painful procedure to avoid serious health conditions.
If you have received a DePuy hip on or after July 2003, it is imperative that you contact an attorney regarding the procedure you underwent and what options at available to you. During this recall, DePuy may try to contact you regarding their hip replacement devices. Do not sign any documents from DePuy as you may be waiving your right to receive compensation for your damages.
