The LINX Device Recall Explained

The FDA has recalled LINX devices after reports that defects caused serious complications. Patients have experienced device failures that required revision surgery or caused recurring symptoms. You should not have to suffer in silence.

What is LINX?

The LINX Reflux Management System is a small ring of magnetic beads connected by titanium wires. It is surgically implanted around the lower esophagus to prevent acid reflux. The device is intended to strengthen the esophageal muscle and reduce stomach acid from flowing upward.

Why Was the Device Recalled?

Some LINX devices had defects that caused the beads to separate or migrate. This can result in:

​

  • Recurring GERD symptoms

  • Difficulty swallowing

  • Bloating or chest pain

  • Device migration or injury to the esophagus

  • Need for revision or removal surgery
     

The FDA issued the recall to protect patients who had these devices implanted.

Who May Qualify for a LINX Lawsuit?

You may have a claim if you:
 

  • Had a LINX device implanted

  • Experienced complications such as device migration, separation, or failure

  • Required revision or removal surgery

  • Suffered other health problems caused by the device
