H3: the revision reported may have been the result of polyethylene wear and osteolysis.Possible causes for polyethylene wear include malalignment between the implants, high contact stresses during knee flexion, third body wear, patient-related conditions, instability, or any combination of these possibilities.The extent and root cause of the reported polyethylene wear and osteolysis cannot be determined as the explanted devices were not returned for evaluation, and radiographs, photographs, or operative notes were not provided.
