Additional Manufacturer Narrative

H6: the reason for the full knee revision reported cannot be determined as limited information was provided and only the tibial insert was returned for evaluation but was likely the result of loosening, infection, fracture, instability, or patient related factors.While it cannot be confirmed if the polyethylene component was included in the packaging recall as reported, the reason for revision does not appear to be related to wear of the tibial insert as the returned implant appears unremarkable.
