H6 :investigation results: the revision reported was likely the result of prosthesis wear, osteolysis, and failure of the cement used to secure the femoral component to the femoral bone, which led to loosening at the cement-implant interface.Possible causes for polyethylene wear include malalignment between the implants, high contact stresses during knee flexion, third body wear, patient-related conditions, instability, or any combination of these possibilities.However, this cannot be confirmed as there were no details regarding cementing technique or environmental conditions provided and the device, images, and radiographs were not returned for evaluation.These devices are used for treatments, not diagnosis.There is no other information available.
