Medtronic Class Action Lawsuit Filed Over Infuse Bone Graft Problems December 12, 2008 AboutLawsuits Add Your Comments A class action lawsuit has been filed against Medtronic, Inc. on behalf of shareholders, alleging that the company made false and misleading statements that failed to disclose their Infuse Bone Graft problems and the extent to which sales of the bone stimulator were dependent on “off-label” uses the company was promoting, which have been associated with a number of serious and life-threatening complications. The Medtronic Infuse bone graft is a liquid bone stimulator that includes a biologically engineered protein known as the bone morphogenetic protein or BMP. The product, which is soaked in a sponge-like material and implanted in a small cage between spinal vertebrae, encourages bone growth and helps replace spinal disks that are damaged. Since receiving FDA approval in 2002, the Medtronic Infuse bone graft has been widely used in spinal fusions and some dental procedures, generating sales of over $3 billion. However, it has recently emerged that a large amount of the sales have come from off-label uses that have not been approved by the FDA as safe or effective, such as in the cervical spine or neck, which has been associated with possible swelling of the neck and compression of the airway or nerves.

Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION Learn More About Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Lawsuits Excessive bone growth, nerve damage inked to Medtronic Infuse BMP. Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION Because the cervical spine and the airway are located in close proximity, the use in this region has led to a number of reported Infuse Bone Graft complications including individuals experiencing difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, trouble speaking, nerve damage, swelling of the neck, respiratory failure and death. Medtronic has also recently disclosed that they face an investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice over alleged off-label promotion and marketing of the Infuse Bone Graft, which would violate federal laws and expose the company to substantial fines. The Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft class action alleges that between November 19, 2007 and November 17, 2008, the company and its executives violated federal securities laws by providing repeated false and misleading information to investors about their flagship product. The plaintiffs allege that the company concealed or failed to disclose the extent to which revenues were dependent on applications of the Infuse Bone Graft that were not approved by the FDA, and which Medtronic had not established as safe or effective. They also indicate that the company failed to disclose that a significant number of patients who received the Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft for an unapproved use, were suffering severe medical complications. As result of the false statements, the investors indicate that the company’s stock was trading at inflated prices and as information about these Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft problems have emerged, the stock has declined drastically. At least one Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft wrongful death lawsuit has already been filed against the company by the family of a California woman who died from respiratory arrest following the use of the bone stimulator in her neck. In addition, product liability lawyers are investigating and reviewing other potential Infuse bone stimulator lawsuits on behalf of individuals who have experienced complications.

I am extremely frustrated to find that the doctors were getting huge kick backs for the use of the product. judy December 2, 2011 I had cervical fusion with bone graft in 2002 and the doctor used the infuse. Due to the first fusion crumbling within the first week after surgery i developed bleeding in the neck that was as large as a golf ball was very hard to swallow and breathe. it took several months for the blood to disapate. the dr did say if it got any bigger he would have to tube me. Judith January 7, 2019 In 2004 I had a posterior cervical fusion surgery at UCLA, MBP was used. I suffered a severe Inflammatory response which caused uncontrollable fluid buildup. During my stay in ICU the surgeon did multiple, approx 6 additional surgeries to try and flush the product out of my spine. At one point My legs became paralyzed. I was in excruciating pain. I did regain the use of my legs, although now much weakened, due to nerve damage. The procedure left me permanently disabled, needing opioid medication, dealing with chronic pain, urination difficulties and severe loss of self. Last year my neurosurgeon discovered either a screw or bone spur that had entered the thecal sac and causing pressure on the cord itself and nerve impingement in my arms creating weakness and pain. He told me that any strong or moderate jarring of my neck could cause the sac to rupture or leak spinal fluid. I feel like a time bomb. I was not informed of the severe potential side effects of this product. This has cost me my paralegal career, affected my marriage, left me unable to persue my hobbies and devastated my life.
