Depuy Orthopedics, a division of Johnson and Johnson, has issued a WORLDWIDE RECALL of it’s “metal-on-metal” ASR XL Acetabular System for Total Hip Replacement. The hip recall came after a determination that the these Hip Implants fail at an alarming rate. These “metal-on-metal” DePuy hip replacementcan shed particles into the patient causing serious, painful reactions, often leading to further surgery.
Depuy has released the following statement to the public:
“Data recently received by the company shows that more people than expected who received the ASR Hip System experienced pain and other symptoms that led to a second hip replacement surgery, called a revision surgery. For this reason, DePuy Orthopaedics is voluntarily recalling its ASR™ XL Acetabular System and DePuy ASR™ Hip Resurfacing System. This recall means additional testing and treatment may be necessary to ensure the hip is functioning well. In some cases, patients may need additional surgery.”
