Executive Summary
Interesting times for the global hip implants sector, and given an extra bit of spice yesterday on the news that UK company Corin will go direct in the US with its Cormet metal on metal (MoM) hip resurfacing system (www.clinica.co.uk, 14 July 2011). Its local deal with Stryker has ended. The Kalamazoo, Michigan company says that changing market opportunities prompted its decision to withdraw from the segment. Hip resurfacing devices will get no more of its attention.
