Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Based on the available information, the patient involved meets the following risk criteria for early prosthesis wear/osteolysis as specified in the hhe: implanted with a lateralized liner, combination of largest available femoral head and/or thinnest available acetabular liner was used, and implanted with a component having a shelf age of greater than 2 years.The most likely cause for the revision reported due to prosthesis wear and osteolysis is a combination of the risk factors specified in the hhe.However, this cannot be confirmed because the devices were not returned for evaluation and radiographs were not provided.
