Additional Manufacturer Narrative

This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The product associated with the reported event is within the scope of recall z-0019-2022; however, there is insufficient information to evaluate whether the subject issue of the recall was a cause or contributor to the reported event.The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear, instability, loss of range of motion and failure of the cement used to secure the femoral component to the femoral bone, which led to loosening at the cement-implant interface after over sixteen years of implanted use.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.
