Visit our defective hip website

Hip replacement surgery is routinely performed on many patients. For several years doctors used the so-called Durom Cup, an artificial metal hip socket for hip replacement surgery. Recently Dr. Lawrence Dorr noticed serious problems with the artificial hip dating back to 2007. In 2008 the company that manufactured the artificial hips, Zimmer Holdings, Inc. recalled them when they were found to be defective. These defective hips are causing agonizing pain and discomfort to many of those who received them.
