After further review of additional information received the following sections g3, g6, h2, h3, h6, h7 and h9 have been updated accordingly.(h3 the revision reported was likely the result of the orientation of the acetabular cup/liner, edge loading/impingement, patient conditions, or a combination of the three, which led to instability, recurrent dislocation and increased prosthesis wear.However, this cannot be confirmed as the explants were not available 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.
