Suffered a Blood Clot, Infection, or Heart Injury From a Chemotherapy or Power Port?

Manufacturers of long-term implanted ports, including Bard, Medtronic, and others, are under investigation for device failures that cause life-threatening complications. If your port fractured, migrated, or caused a pulmonary embolism, you may be eligible for a major settlement.

Why These Catheters Are Failing

Defects in implanted catheter systems can cause internal breakdown, structural instability, and contamination risks that escalate into serious medical emergencies.

Material Degradation

Over time, catheter tubing can weaken, crack, or fracture, releasing plastic fragments directly into the bloodstream.

Structural Weak Points

Design or material vulnerabilities may increase the risk of premature mechanical failure under normal medical use.

Pressure-Related Stress

Power-injection and repeated access can strain the catheter walls, accelerating breakdown and instability.

Device Migration

If the catheter shifts from its implanted position, it can irritate or damage nearby vessels and organs.

Fragment Embolization

Broken catheter pieces may travel through the bloodstream, creating dangerous internal blockages.

Biofilm Formation

Irregular or compromised surfaces may allow bacterial buildup, increasing the risk of persistent bloodstream infections.

Port-O-Catheter lawsuit information

Most patients never chose a specific port. They trusted it was safe, properly tested, and appropriate for long-term use. When that trust is misplaced, patients are left facing consequences they never agreed to assume. Lawsuits focus on whether manufacturers adequately tested these devices, disclosed known risks, and prioritized patient safety over distribution speed.
