Woman awarded €700k in case over DePuy hip implants
Mr Justice Kevin Cross said that while Gillian O’Sullivan’s injuries are clearly not catastrophic, they are undoubtedly severe and caused major disruption to her life. The injury resulted in a serious continuing pain and ongoing permanent medical attention, the judge noted.
The judge remarked that Ms O’Sullivan’s injuries were far more severe than any other person whose case has opened in his court in relation to DePuy hip replacement implants.
