This follow-up report is being submitted to relay corrected information.The following sections were corrected: b1, b2, d1, g4, h6 - health effect - clinical code, component code, type of investigation, investigation findings and h11.The reported event was unable to be confirmed due to limited information received from the customer.No device was returned for evaluation; further, photographs and/or radiograph images were not provided for review.A definitive root cause was unable to be determined; however, may have resulted from a combination of risk factors such as use error, implant positioning, implant size selection, and patient factors (fitness for surgery, biomechanics, activity level and local tissue oxidation potential).If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
