Sulzer Orthopedic of Austin, Texas, recently recalled thousands of defective hip implant parts it had manufactured. The problem was that the socket portion of the hip implant had an oily residue that prevented it from adhering to the patients hipbone. Sulzer has since admitted that their manufacturing process had left mineral oil on the surface of some of their hip implant parts. Because of that, the implant did not bond properly with the patients bone. To date there have been 1000 surgical replacements of the defective parts. Sulzer has issued a recall and notified the FDA.
