Defective Hip Replacements | Wrong sized Hip Implant

Hip Replacement surgery can be required for a number of reasons and can greatly improve a patient’s quality of life and mobility. However, errors made during surgery or problems with a hip implant can have a devastating effect.

If you think you may have a hip replacement claim, contact us today.

Below are a few of the complications that can arise from hip replacement surgery:

• Defective Hip Replacements

If a defective or faulty hip implant is used it is unlikely to last as long as usual so more surgery is required to remove and replace the defective or broken implant.

• Securing the Hip Implant

If the hip implant is not fitted properly during the original surgery the implant could become loose much sooner than the normal life expectancy of 10-20 years.

• Wrong sized Hip Implant

"An implant of the wrong size can lead to on-going severe pain, discomfort and cause mobility problems."
