Zimmer NexGen Knee Lawsuits
The Zimmer NexGen Knee implant has not yet been recalled but has been associated with a higher-than-expected failure rate. Knee replacements are intended to last approximately 15 years but according to new research the Zimmer NexGen CR-Flex can reportedly fail within three years.
Several prominent knee surgeons have requested a Zimmer knee implant recall of the NexGen CR-Flex due to its early failure rate. At a 2010 conference of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, a pair of knee surgeons presented new evidence which indicated that the Zimmer NexGen CR-Flex knee replacement failure rate could be as high as 9%, and suggested that the number of Zimmer knee implant complications that required revision surgery could be even higher. The same study found that 36% of Zimmer NexGen CR-Flex knee replacements became loose within two years of implantation.
