Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H6: investigation results - the revision reported may have been the result of prosthesis wear due to a combination of the risk factors.Contributing factors to the reported subluxation and/or prosthesis fracture may have been instability and/or implant positioning.However, this cannot be confirmed because the component was not returned for evaluation and radiographs were not provided.
