We found 85 models of G7 Acetabular Liner by Biomet Orthopedics, LLC in the FDA's device registry (GUDID). Together they are named in 358 adverse event reports in the FDA's MAUDE database, received between Jan 12, 2016 and Sep 24, 2026 — classified as 2 deaths, 193 injuries, 163 malfunctions.
The most frequently reported specific device problem is “Difficult to Insert” (151 reports).
Reports come from manufacturers, hospitals and patients and are not verified by the FDA. A report does not prove the device caused the event. Widely used products collect more reports, so totals can't be used to compare products or estimate failure rates. Only reports that name a model's exact device identifier are counted.

Patient problems: Insufficient Information
MAUDE report 50882240 ↗InjurySep 11, 2026Device Dislodged or Dislocated
It was reported the patient underwent a hip revision approximately 6 years and 7 months post-implantation due to recurrent dislocation. The acetabular liner and femoral head were exchanged to a dual mobility construct. Attempts have been made and no further information has been provided.
Patient problems: Joint Dislocation
MAUDE report 50725446 ↗InjuryJun 23, 2026Detachment of Device or Device Component; Device Dislodged or Dislocated
IT WAS REPORTED THAT APPROXIMATELY TWO DAYS POST-IMPLANTATION, THE PATIENT UNDERWENT A HIP REVISION DUE TO DISLOCATION. MULTIPLE TESTS WERE PERFORMED DURING INITIAL IMPLANTATION TO ENSURE STABILITY AND THAT THE LINER WAS PROPERLY IMPLANTED. ONE DAY, POST OP, THE HIP DISLOCATED WHILE THE PATIENT WAS IN BED, WITHOUT GETTING UP. DURING THE REVISION, THE LINER WAS FOUND OUTSIDE THE CUP. THE PATIENT WAS CONVERTED TO DUAL MOBILITY.
