OHIO LAWYER FOR ZIMMER PERSONA KNEE REPLACEMENT RECALL

Have You Suffered Adverse Reactions from a Zimmer Persona Knee Replacement?

In order for a knee replacement to properly take and function for the long haul, the tibial plate must firmly bond to the bone. An issue with Zimmer Persona Knee may prevent the tibial plate from binding, leading to long-term instability.

The gaps that form due to improper binding will fill with fluid, preventing the knee from ever properly healing and reaching optimal stability. The loose tibial implant portion of device can potentially be fixed, but this also requires a revision surgery, along with the pain and recovery consequences it entails.

Zimmer issued a voluntary recall in 2015 for 11,658 Persona Trabecular Metal Tibial implant devices. Patients who suffered adverse results due to the faulty tibial plates may be eligible to receive compensation for their added medical costs, lost wages and pain and suffering.
