AngioDynamics Port Catheter Lawsuit
AngioDynamics Port Catheter Litigation (MDL 3125) Lawsuits filed nationwide allege that AngioDynamics port catheters—specifically the SmartPort, Vortex, and Xcela models—suffer from a critical design defect involving barium sulfate. This defect allegedly causes the catheter material to degrade, fracture, or migrate, leading to severe complications such as sepsis, blood clots, and organ perforation. Federal cases have been consolidated into Multidistrict Litigation (MDL No. 3125) in the Southern District of California.
