Reason for recall

Revision rate trends from within the MicroPort Orthopedics Inc. database evaluated for the modular head Metal on Metal THA systems show an increasing overall trend from 2009 to present and it was found that there was a specific hazard/harm for suspected tissue reaction to metal debris over one percent for modular head CONSERVE(R) systems and DYNASTY(R) metal acetabular liner systems.

Foreign material recalls cover pieces of metal, plastic, glass, wood or other objects that got into the product during processing and could cause injury if eaten.
