Biomet Hip Lawsuit Filed for Nevada Woman

08/17/2012 Biomet Hip Lawsuit Filed for Nevada Woman: An August Biomet Hip Lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court of Nevada for Sharon Rosenberg who suffered from a faulty Biomet Hip implant. Below details are given of Sharon Rosenberg’s Biomet Hip Lawsuit experience as taken from her Biomet Hip Lawsuit documents. Those who have experienced similar trials may find a Biomet Hip Lawyer for their Biomet Hip Lawsuit by contacting Best Legal Source.

Biomet Hip Lawsuit plaintiff, Sharon Rosenberg, is a resident of Henderson, Nevada. She had a surgery to implant her with the M2a Magnum Hip System on December 5, 2005. At the time of her surgery, there had already been over 100 adverse event reports concerning the M2a Magnum hip to the FDA. It is alleged within the Biomet Hip Lawsuit that this means the defendants knew their product was defective. Because Biomet failed to present this information to the public, physicians or Ms. Rosenberg, it is assumed that the Biomet hip implant is safe. This failure to warn and misrepresentation is highlighted through the Biomet Hip Lawsuit document.

The defective design and composition of this implant is blamed in the Biomet Hip Lawsuit trial document for causing Ms. Rosenberg’s hip implants to fail. It is reported that Ms. Rosenberg experienced severe pain as well as a dangerous, complicated revision surgery to repair her damages. The revision was completed on October 30, 2008 and was riskier than the previous surgery due to the removal of the first implant and existing scar tissue. Again, on August 2, 2010, Ms. Rosenberg underwent a second revision surgery because of painful metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty.

According to the Biomet Hip Lawsuit document, the original failed implant caused Ms. Rosenberg to undergo these two revision surgeries which are longer and have a higher rate of complication, as compared to the original implant surgery. The Biomet Hip Lawsuit is pursued for Ms. Rosenberg for manufacturing defects, misrepresentation, failure to warn, negligence, fraud, concealment and punitive damages.

Other patients who suffered injury like Ms. Rosenberg’s should be aware of the options available to them legally. A trusted, experienced lawyer should be contacted to represent your best interests through the Biomet Hip Lawsuit.
