H3: the revision reported was likely the result of prosthesis 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 root cause of the prosthesis wear and osteolysis cannot be determined as the devices were not returned for evaluation.
