After further review of additional information received the following sections d1, d4, d6a, d10, g3, g4, g6, h2, h3, h4 and h6 have been updated accordingly.Section d10: concomitants products: - logic femoral ps cem right sz 4 (cat# 02-010-01-0340 / serial# (b)(6)).- logic tibia implant psc insert, sz 4, 9mm (cat# 02-012-44-4009 / serial# (b)(6)).- lgc tibial fit tray cem sz 4f / 4t (cat# 02-012-45-4040 / serial# (b)(6)).- three peg patella 35mm (cat# 200-02-35 / serial# (b)(6)).- saw blade new stryk (.050) (cat# 203-96-01 - (11-2222) / serial# (b)(6)).- saw blade new stryker (.050) (cat# 203-96-03 - (11-2216) / serial# (b)(^)).(h3) the revision reported was likely the result of radiolucencies observed on pre-revision x-rays, which may indicate loosening at the bone/implant interface.The ¿extensive delamination¿ reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may have been the result of third body wear.However, this cannot be confirmed because the devices were not returned to exactech for evaluation.The most probable root cause associated with the reported event of "prosthesis wear¿ is associated with material damage to a surface, usually involving progressive loss or displacement of material, due to relative motion between that surface and a contacting substance or substances.Furthermore, the most probable root cause associated with the reported event of "loosening¿ is associated with weakened integration of the device at the bone-implant interface due to loss of fibrous and/or bony tissue and leading to compromised anchorage of the device.
