After further review of additional information received the following sections g1, g3, g6, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3) the revision reported may have been due to orientation of the components, patient related conditions, instability, or any combination of these possibilities, which led to prosthesis wear and osteolysis.Additionally, the components were implanted for over 12 years which likely contributed to the reported wear.However, this cannot be confirmed because the component was not returned for evaluation.The most probable root cause for the reported event of ¿prosthesis wear¿ is associated with material damage to a surface, usually involving progressive loss or displacement of material, due to relative motion between that surface and a contacting substance or substances.Furthermore, the most probable root cause for the event ¿osteolysis¿ is associated with destruction or disappearance of bone tissue likely related to weakened integration of an implant at the bone-implant interface.
