This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The reason for the revision was likely the result of the reported pain, which was caused prosthesis wear and instability.Possible causes for polyethylene wear include malalignment between the implants, high contact stresses during knee flexion, third body wear, patient-related conditions, instability, inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall, or any combination of these possibilities.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
