The Artelon CMC Spacer device was designed to treat early and mid-stage osteoarthritis which occurs in the carpometacarpal thumb joint. The implant acts as a substitute cushion, as osteoarthritis causes the cartilage to breakdown until the joint can no longer provide cushioning for the bones. Unfortunately, the FDA has received numerous reports of Artelon spacer problems, which may present symptoms such as shooting or burning pain, bone loss, swelling, limited range of hand motion and a misshapen thumb. Some patients suffering from Artelon spacer issues have reportedly needed surgery to remove the implant, while others have claimed that the Artelon CMC Spacer can break apart while in the hand, necessitating immediate second surgery.
Patients experiencing Artelon Spacer problems, including those requiring revision surgery, may be able to file a claim to recover compensation for medical bills, physical pain and other damages.
