This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear and fracture or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Additionally, a contributing factor to the reported wear may have been the result of being packaged in a non-conforming vacuum bag for more than five years.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images and radiographs were not provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
