Can you imagine the Hutchison effect doing the following to a metal implant?

The Hutchison Effect

Materials characterisation of bizarre and catastrophic 'burst' failure in metal by 'Hutchison Effect'

 A small cross-section aluminium alloy rod was subjected to an unexplained phenomenon called the 'Hutchison Effect' which caused the rod end to 'burst' forming a bizarre, frayed failure consisting of peeled platelets 0·05 to 2 mm thick, many torn along striated surface features to form metal strands or filaments resembling a frayed rope. This unusual failure did not exhibit any unexplained metallurgical or materials phenomena when examined using a materials characterisation protocol including optical metallography, field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, leaving the mechanism for this bizarre failure unexplained.

Explanation of how the Hutchison effect sort of rips metal apart.

Hutchison Effect - Metal fracturing & magnetic pole anomalies explained

Its hard to have an idea how or if the Hutchison effect could cause spontaneous fracture in metal implants, however spontaneous fracturing has happened.
