H3: the revision reported may have been due to third body wear, patient related conditions, instability, and/or malalignment between the femoral and tibial components, which led to prosthesis wear.However, this cannot be confirmed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images of the explanted device/radiographs were not provided.
