Bone Tumors and Hip Replacement
Bone tumors are a collection of cells collected in the bone of an individual. These can develop in the bone itself or travel there from other parts of the body. No matter what the cause of the tumor, it is a condition that must be addressed with medical attention. In order to treat bone tumors in the hip, many people turn to hip replacement surgery.
DePuy hip implants have been linked to dangerous side effects and complications. If you or someone you love has suffered from a health problem after receiving a DePuy hip implant, do not hesitate to contact the DePuy lawsuit attorneys of Williams Kherkher by calling 800-761-3187.
DePuy Dangers
During hip replacement surgery for bone tumors, the affected bone will be removed and an artificial bone or hip implant will take its place. DePuy hip implants may cause the patient to experience a variety of hip implants such as:
- Implant dislocation
- Bone fracture
- Loosening of the implant
People that undergo hip implant surgery will require a long recovery period. Additional complications may compromise the health of the patient and require costly treatment.
