Introduction:

The ASR™ Articular Surface Replacement and ASR™ XL Metal-on-Metal systems were recalled due to high revision rates at five years. A worldwide clinical follow-up of patients was initiated. This paper summarizes current findings in South Africa (SA) in comparison with those outside SA (OSA).

Methods:

Patients were followed annually, or until revision, from 10 clinical centers worldwide. Data collected includes demographic, surgical, radiographic, blood metal ion levels, and patient reported outcome measures (PROM).
