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, loss of range of motion, patellar loosening, and femoral loosening or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Potential contributions of manufacturing, user, and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images, radiographs, and product information were not provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
