Representing patients throughout the United States who have been affected by the NexGen knee recall involving the MIS tibial plate and who have suffered side effects from a defective Zimmer NexGen knee replacement and representing individuals in filing Zimmer NexGen recall lawsuit claims. Cases are currently being filed individually and no nationwide Zimmer class action lawsuit has been filed.
In September 2010, the manufacturer announced a Zimmer NexGen knee recall focused on a specific tibial component of the NexGen knee replacement. This Zimmer NexGen recall only covers a specific component piece, however some research has indicated a higher than acceptable failure rate involving the Zimmer knee and some critics have commented that there should be a more general Zimmer NexGen knee recall. It is estimated that since 2003, the NexGen knee replacement has been surgically implanted in over 150,000 knee patients. This potential Zimmer knee recall would only affect patients who had knee surgery since 2003. A small number of patients have already reported experiencing knee replacement problems including, but not limited to: serious or ongoing pain, infection, swelling and loosening or dislocation of the knee replacement implant.
We believe that the manufacturer of any defective NexGen knee implants should be held accountable for any problems caused by their product that they are legally responsible for and patients should be fairly compensated for their damages. Some patients have had their life changed in a number of ways due to the Zimmer NexGen knee recall including:
• Outstanding medical bills
• Future medical costs
• Emotional suffering
• Permanent injuries
• Greater risk of developing future problems
• Future surgeries and therapy
