H6: investigation results - the revision reported was likely the result of both prosthesis wear and an insufficient bond between the femoral component and the bone, which led to aseptic (non-infected) femoral loosening.The extent and root cause of the prosthesis wear and femoral loosening cannot be determined as the device(s) were not returned for evaluation, and images, radiographs, and operative notes were not provided.
