(PRWEB) July 02, 2013
DePuy Pinnacle lawsuits are creating their way by way of federal courts. The attorneys at Rottenstein Law Group LLP note that the quantity of DePuy Pinnacle injury lawsuits has elevated over the course of 2013, according to court documents in In re: DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc. Pinnacle Hip Implant Products Liability Litigation (MDL-2244 U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas).

There are about 4,000 consolidated into a multidistrict litigation for pretrial efficiency, according to court documents. As they have with other metal-on-metal hip replacement systems, plaintiffs in the Johnson & Johnson DePuy Pinnacle instances have filed lawsuits alleging they suffered from a number of side effects, such as metal poisoning (metallosis) and device failure, according to court documents.

The Pinnacle, like the DePuy ASR hip implant, has been under U.S. Food and Drug Administration scrutiny due to the fact of the possible for the metal components of the implant to rub collectively, causing cobalt and chromium ions to flake off into the implant recipients bloodstream. That causes the metal poisoning, which could result in some implant recipients suffering from so-called pseudotumors. *

These who think their hip implants have injured them deserve to have the chance to pursue compensation for their harms, stated Rochelle Rottenstein, principal of the Rottenstein Law Group LLP. Published study studies and FDA security communications all serve as possible evidence at trialand could serve to inspire far more implant recipients to file lawsuits.

The Rottenstein Law Group LLP represents customers in Pinnacle and other metal-on-metal hip implant lawsuits. The firm encourages those who think they have suffered from the Pinnacles alleged side effects to pay a visit to its FAQ web page to discover more about the side effects and eligibility for filing a lawsuit.
