Our lawyers are investigating fracture, migration, and infection lawsuits for individuals who received some types of AngioDynamics Inc. or Navilyst Medical port catheters. If you or a loved one has suffered complications after receiving an AngioDynamics Inc. or Navilyst Medical catheter, you may be entitled to compensation.
AngioDynamics Catheter Complications
Lawsuits against AngioDynamics in recent years have alleged that their catheters used in Smart Port implantable venous access devices had problems with fissuring, cracking, fracturing, and infections, and more as a result of manufacturing defects. Such complications can lead to life-threatening conditions requiring additional surgeries or other medical interventions.
Navilyst Medical, Inc. is also a manufacturer of vascular medical equipment such as catheters, ports, and embolization devices, and is a subsidiary/division of AngioDynamics.
Port catheters manufactured by AngioDynamics and Navilyst Medical, Inc. have faced recalls in the past. For instance, in February 2021, a United States Food and Drug Administration recall notice revealed, “On 2/22/2021, AngioDynamics issued an Urgent Medical Device Recall notice via letter informing customers the package integrity of specific Valved Introducers may be susceptible to failure, resulting in the potential for compromised sterility of the device.”
AngioDynamics and Navilyst catheters have been under scrutiny due to numerous reports of malfunctions, causing patients undue pain and suffering. If you or a loved one has been impacted by this, you may need to consider pursuing an AngioDynamics Inc. or Navilyst Medical catheter lawsuit.
