H6: corrected the following: health effect - clinical code, component code, type of investigation, investigation findings, investigation conclusions.The reason for the revision reported in case: (b)(6) cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Additionally, a contributing factor to the reported wear may have been the result of being packaged in a non-conforming vacuum bag for more than five years.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images, radiographs, and relevant clinical information were not provided.
