KALAMAZOO, Mich. (Map, News) - Medical device maker Stryker Corp. said Tuesday it will voluntarily recall certain hip surgery products, a week after it received a warning from regulators.
The company is recalling Trident PSL
and Hemispherical Acetabular Cups that were made in its Cork, Ireland plant. Stryker, whose orthopedics division is based in Mahwah, N.J., said there are no safety issues for patients who received these products, based on expert opinion. Last week, the Food and Drug Administration ordered Kalamazoo-based Stryker to fix a host of long-standing problems in its manufacturing of hip replacement parts that have triggered multiple patient complaints and forced some to have follow-up surgeries.
