Minnesota Could Be Ground Zero for Defective DePuy ASR Hip Implants

The DePuy ASR Hip Recall Law Firm Alliance is concerned that Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota may have a higher than average number of patients with defective ASR hips because of the high numbers of ASR hips sold in this territory.

Record sales of the ASR in the Minnesota region come more than 3 years after orthopedic experts in Australia and the United Kingdom warned DePuy about problems with the ASR hip implant system. Instead, DePuy continued their aggressive marketing campaign in the United States to sell the ASR hip implant system.

2007 ASR HIP SALES STATISTICS FOR THE MINNESOTA REGION:

  • 362% sales increase in ASR Hip Implant Systems in Minnesota
  • Generated $2 million dollars more in additional sales than expected in Minnesota during 2007
  • Overall, DePuy sold 62 million dollars more in hip products nationally than the year before.

Why Risks To Patients in Minnesota, North Dakota & South Dakota Could Be Higher

According to the Minnesota Hospital Association, there are 145 hospitals in the state, including the world renowned Mayo Clinic and St. Joseph's hospital in St. Paul. A search of online yellow pages turns up more than 480 orthopedic physician practice listings in the Minneapolis area alone. It is likely that Minneapolis-St. Paul could be one of the regions in the United States most significantly impacted by this worldwide ASR hip recall because of the high sales results in this area.
