Weitz & Luxenberg is no longer accepting Stryker Hip Implant Cases

UPDATE: STRYKER HIP JOINTS
Patent appeals court rules against Stryker Corp.

On January 31 2008, a U.S. patent appeals court ruled in favor of TriMed Inc. in a suit which accused Stryker Corp. of infringing its patent for an implantable device to be used for broken bones and joints, according to Reuters.

TriMed had accused Stryker, one of the biggest makers of artificial hips and knees, of selling a device for wrist fractures that infringed TriMed's patent for an implantable device that would attach to stable portions of broken bones and hold the fractured portions in place.
