After further review of additional information received the following sections g1, g3, g6, h1, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3) the revision reported may have been the result of the orientation of the acetabular cup, edge loading/impingement, patient-related conditions, or any combination of these possibilities, which led to polyethylene wear after being implanted for approximately 13 years.Additional contributing factors to the reported failure may have been the result of a combination of the risk factors including, use error, implant positioning, implant size selection, and patient factors may have also been a contributing factor to the early prosthesis wear.However, this cannot be confirmed as the device was not available for evaluation, and radiographs were not provided at the time of this evaluation.
