The Stryker LFIT V40 Femoral Head is a medical component used in total hip replacement surgeries. It fits into the hip socket and attaches to the femoral stem. As part of a recent recall of the LFIT COCR V40 Femoral Head, Stryker notified its implanting physicians on August 29, 2016, of the “higher than expected” incidence of taper lock failure for certain sizes of the LFIT Femoral Head. Upon receipt of these letters, some physicians began following up with patients who may have the faulty replacement component.
