(h3) the revision reported may have been the result of the pain due to not resurfacing the patella during the initial surgery.An additional contributing factor to the revision may have been inclusion of the implanted polyethylene component in the packaging recall.However, this cannot be confirmed as the tibial insert was not returned for (h6) component code: 734, bearings.
