AcroMed Bone Screws: Overview
AcroMed Corporation manufactured a defective bone screw used to relieve back pain. Many of the AcroMed screws broke after implantation into patients' spines. In a 1997 class action lawsuit settlement, patients who received defective AcroMed bone screw implants were awarded $100 million.
Recently, a court ruled that those patients suffering from the faulty AcroMed bone screws could participate in the settlement despite the fact that they missed the original court deadline.
