The US Drug Watchdog says, "We want to make certain all recipients of the recalled DePuy ASR get to the best possible national caliber attorneys, because compensation is vital when talking about the ordeal of a hip implant replacement, also known as revision surgery, and we do not care if the now recalled DePuy ASR metal on metal hip implant has failed yet, or not. Tragically, only about 3400 DePuy ASR hip implant recipients have been identified by the federal court handling the litigation over the DePuy ASR. The problem-there are 40,000 recalled DePuy ASR hip implant recipients in the United States." According to the New York Times, "The so-called metal-on-metal hips, in which a device’s ball and joint are made of metal, are failing at high rates within a few years instead of lasting 15 years or more, as artificial joints normally do. The wear of metal parts against each other is generating debris that is damaging tissue and, in some cases, crippling patients." The US Drug Watchdog says, "If you or a loved one has had a hip replacement involving the recalled DePuy ASR hip implant, please call us immediately at 866-714-6466." http://USDrugWatchdog.Com
