If you received a Stryker Rejuvenate or ABG II hip implant and developed complications, you may want to inquire with Greenville SC attorney Thomas Creech to see if you have a claim for defective hip implant.

Stryker Orthopedics has recalled the Rejuvenate modular neck stem implant due to corrosion at the femoral neck stem junction. This type of corrosion can present a myriad of problems and complications for a patient.

According to multiple media outlets, on November 3, 2014, Stryker announced a nation-wide settlement of claims invlving defective Rejuvenate and ABG II hip implants.

These Stryker hip implants can cause very serious harm for patients including pseudo tumor, tissue damage, and metallosis.  Moreover, a recent study in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery determined that the corrosion-related revision rates of the Stryker Rejuvenate modular neck were 28% in the one study.  Apparently there have been other studies indicating that the revision rates in these Stryker Rejuvenate implants at less than 4 years were as high as 40%, which is very, very high.

If you have received a letter or notice from your doctor informing you that your Stryker Rejuvenate or ABGII hip device has been recalled, and you desire to speak with an attorney, feel free to call Greenville SC attorney Thomas Creech to inquire about representation in your Stryker Rejuvenate ABG II defective hip implant case.  For a free consultation to discuss your potential case, call 864-235-4999 local in Greenville.
