  • Reason
    Depuy issued a field safety notice in march 2010 (recall number 53553) after receiving data that demonstrated the asr system had a higher than expected revision rate at three years when used with smaller head sizes. new data now shows a higher than expected revision rate at five years across the entire size range. the manufacturer is therefore issuing a voluntary recall of all asr products.
