Were you injured by a Medtronic surgical stapler during a medical procedure? 
Medical device manufacturer Medtronic is currently facing lawsuits from people who claim that they were seriously injured by staplers used during surgeries and the company knowingly hid the risks.
Plaintiffs have claimed that they have suffered from side effects including infections, cardiac issues and have had to have corrective surgeries.
In Texas, one lawsuit claimed Medtronic knowingly sold defective medical devices to the public, and hid the risks from doctors and patients. The information came to light when Kaiser Health had a report about medical device malfunctions that were documented in US Food and Drug Administration databases that were not known to the public.
In 2019, the FDA recommended the reclassification of surgical staplers so they would be more highly regulated after it received more than 100,000 reports of complications, including 412 reported deaths linked to the devices.
