FDA Recommends Not Using Synovo Total Hip System
In January 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended that health care providers stop using Synovo Total Hip Replacement System implants at this time and closely monitor patients with the device.
Significant changes have been made to three components of Synovo hip devices after FDA approval, calling the safety and effectiveness of the implants into question.
The following three components of Synovo devices may have been altered:
- Acetabular Bearing
- Acetabular Fixation Cup
- Femoral Resurfacing Cup
If the Synovo Total Hip Replacement System is made with parts that don’t meet FDA standards, the device may break down or fail to function properly, causing the patient to experience a range of different issues.
