IMPORTANT NOTICE

Recall of DePuy Hip Implants

This international recall is being carried out by DePuy Orthopedics Incorporated because the number of people developing problems with their implant was higher than normal.  Patients who have had a hip replacement manufactured by DePuy, where a faulty artificial hip device has been used, face the possibility of undergoing revision surgery for the purposes of replacing the artificial hip.  These implants have been used in Ireland since 2004.

Have you or a loved one received a letter from the Health Service Executive (HSE) confirming that you were fitted with a DePuy ASR Hip Resurfacing System or the DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System since 2004?  Have you been requested to attend a check-up or requested to complete a form allowing DePuy to have access to your medical records?

We are providing legal advice to persons who may have been affected.

PLEASE CONTACT US AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE DATE FOR FURTHER INFORMATION AND ADVICE AS STRICT TIME LIMITS APPLY.
