20 Tasmanians have recently filed a federal class action lawsuit against
DePuy Orthopaedics concerning the DePuy ASR Acetabular Hip Replacement
System. The product was declared defective and recalled last August, on
account of complications that allow metal shavings to enter the blood
stream and cause chromium and cobalt poisoning. These cases are similar
in nature to DePuy's other metal-on-metal hip implant, the Pinnacle
Hip Implant, which has also been declared defective and is the subject
of numerous lawsuits. If you or someone you know has suffered as a result
of a defective DePuy product
