Metal on Metal Hip Resurfacing and Pregnancy Study 2013

Hip Resurfacing at Surface Hippy Posted on September 2, 2019 by Patricia WalterJanuary 2, 2020
Read complete study here:  https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23417534 …Metal-on-metal (MoM) hip resurfacing has been used in many young, active patients, including women of childbearing age. While ion levels have been measured in mothers with MoM hip resurfacing and their babies, little is known about how these ions affect child development… … Based on this unique data, we do not feel that MoM hip resurfacing is contraindicated for women of childbearing age, but power analyses show that we cannot draw conclusive results from our sample….… Read the rest

Study finds elevated levels of cobalt and chromium in offspring of patients with metal-on-metal hip implants

Hip replacement patients with metal-on-metal (MoM) implants (both the socket and hip ball are metal) pass metal ions to their infants during pregnancy, according to a new study presented today at the 2010 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). Data showed there is a correlation between cobalt and chromium levels in the mother and those in her infant at the time of delivery.

“Although the affects of metal ions in maternal and fetal subjects are unknown, the fact that the placenta is not a complete barrier to the transport of these metals is noteworthy,” said Joshua J. Jacobs, MD, Professor and
