GLENOHUMERAL CHONDROLYSIS
A “glenohumeral chondrolysis” injury from a shoulder pain pump may entitle you to monetary compensation

Please complete the form here to determine your eligibility to collect restitution for your shoulder injury related to glenohumeral chondrolysis.

A recent study in the American Journal of Sports Medicine addressed current patient reports of “postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis” (PAGCL), a severe type of shoulder arthritis in which the cartilage of the joint is abruptly lost after a shoulder arthroscopy procedure.

The study focused on 177 arthroscopic shoulder surgeries and found there were 12 cases of postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis.

Researchers identified shoulder pain pumps as a common denominator in the 12 cases. Further research showed that certain pain pumps that deliver pain medication directly to the shoulder joint via a catheter can cause glenohumeral chondrolysis, an agonizing, yet unnecessary, condition that may entitle you to obtain damages to cover medical bills and suffering.

Some of the products under investigation are manufactured by Stryker, I-Flow Corporation (on-Q) and DJO Inc.
