Johnson & Johnson has announced they are pulling a device used during hysterectomies, known as a power morcellator, from the global market as the device has been tied with spreading and accelerating the growth of underacted cancer in women. Earlier this year, the U.S. Food and Drug Aministration (FDA) issued a warning to doctors about the device. Johnson & Johnson then suspended use of the device in April. The FDA warned the medical community that the device may spread a form of cancer beyond the uterus and could result in lowering women’s chances of survival. The personal injury attorneys of Williams DeClark Tuschman are taking this matter very serious. If you or a loved one feel you may have been affected by this surgical procedure, the law office of Williams DeClark Tuschman, personal injury specialist, would like to talk to you. We are offering FREE consultations on this matter. We are more than happy to answer any questions you may have and we will assist you in the next appropriate course of legal action.
