Additional Manufacturer Narrative

After further review of additional information received the following sections g3, g6, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3) the revision reported may have been the result of malalignment between the femoral and tibial components, third body wear, patient-related conditions, or any combination of these possibilities, which led to polyethylene wear of the tibial insert.However, this cannot be confirmed as the device was not returned for evaluation and images/x-rays were unable to be obtained.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.
