New Device Update I just finished with a lot of helpful information about the status of so many of the new hip resurfacing devices.  Global Hip Resurfacing Update (July 2026)

Is the manufacturing for the Recap/Magnum any different after the new production has started back up, or is it the same?

This is all I have for the  New ReCap/M2a-magnum - https://surfacehippy.info/new-recap-m2a-magnum-2026-technical-information/

Here is Dr. Gross original article about the New ReCap/Magnum  https://surfacehippy.info/hip-resurfacing-has-a-new-life-with-the-recap-magnum-by-dr-gross-2026/

Curious to know this as well. I saw Dr. Brooks a few weeks ago who mentioned that he had concerns about the new manufacturer and long term wear of the implant. He said they had reps travel to the US to learn how to polish the implants because they were having issues on their end which sucks because I'm a smaller framed male in my early 30s so this is the only real option for me unless I do a total hip on both of mine.

He also wasn't sure when he would have access to the implant since the rollout has already been delayed due to these manufacturing issues.
