What’s the Problem?

In April 2008, a prominent Los Angeles surgeon named Dr. Lawrence Dorr, publicly warned other orthopedists about the Durom cup failures his patients were experiencing.

According to Dr. Door, “It is a bad design”.

Since it was first sold in the United States in 2006, the Durom cup has been implanted in more than 12,000 patients.

The manufacturer has stated that it expected the overall need for early replacement in patients to be low, however the New York Times has reported that the companies data and interviews with doctors suggest that hundreds of patients might need early replacement surgeries in the coming years.
