Recall
In August 2010, DePuy Orthopaedics, Inc., issued a voluntary recall of the ASR™ XL Acetabular System and ASR™ Hip Resurfacing System after new information from the UK National Joint Registry indicated that the number of patients who required a second hip replacement procedure, called a revision surgery, was higher than previously reported data.Potential complications include pseudotumors, metallosis, ALVAL (Aseptic Lymphocytic Vasculitis Associated Lesions), and femoral neck fracture.
