Wright Profemur Hip Lawsuit

A defective design of the femoral neck for this system has been linked to a number of catastrophic failures, where Wright Profemur hip implant may shatter or fracture.

However, the implants have been linked to a staggering number of problems within a few years of surgery, often resulting in the need for revision surgery or life-time medical monitoring due to the risk of metal hip poisoning.

Microscopic shavings of chromium and cobalt may be shed into the body as the metal hip implant parts rub against each other.

Although certain types of implants have resulted in more lawsuits, Marc J. Bern & Partners and its professional team are reviewing potential claims for individuals who received any all-metal artificial hip system that caused them to experience problems
