    Has anyone opened filthy srom hinge femurs? Dirt from he express care boxes pouring inside the compromised implants?

    Yes. We always submit the paperwork to corp... No answers? Once this hits the news with distributors knowing these problems exist, they will get jail time for sure.

    It sounds like the company has repackaged "ALL" srom hinge femurs. Shouldn't be an issue anymore.

    I did hear that someone in the mid-west was filing a suit against his distributor and Depuy from this reason. No confirmation if this happened. Just hearsay in the grapevine

    That's pretty funny. It was no different 5 yrs ago when I worked for Depuy. The augment boxes were even worse

    There is a doc in Alabama putting in these srom hinge implants right and left!!! Wow, if Depuy knew there was an issue and continued to let surgeons implant them.... Lots of reprocusions coming down the pipeline at some point!! Knee revision team better jet out of the country before they get grilled by the FDA!!!!

    We all thought ASR was bad.. Having the knee revision issues too?? WTF?

    We had an internal recall... all the packaging was redone and everything is fine.. No dirty implants anymore.. You guys are just trying to stir the pot!

    This won't be good for any of our company's. Literally, the ASR debacle screwed us ALL! Thanks Depuy, once again for not putting ethics before your revenue! Great Job Chambers.. Your moving mountains..

    Was there any communication sent to our customers about this? I have heard nothing, as I don't have a lot of knee revision business.
