Like many of
the metal-on-metal hip implant systems, the DePuy ASR and the DePuy Pinnacle
have had their share of problems. The Pinnacle gained FDA approval in 2000, and
has not been recalled despite adverse reports of failure and metal toxicity.
The ASR was approved in 2005 and spent only five years on the market prior to
being recalled in August of 2010.
