This follow-up is being submitted to relay additional information.Updated: b4, b5, d2, g1, g3, g6, h1, h2, h3, h6, and h11.A hematoma is a mass of clotted blood that forms in a tissue, organ, or body space.A hematoma can be associated with pain, swelling, ecchymosis, serosanguinous or bloody drainage after a recent surgical procedure or trauma and can predispose the patient to infection.The development of a postoperative hematoma can be correlated with the surgical procedure and perioperative anticoagulation therapy prescribed to prevent thrombus formation.Most hematomas resolve on their own, without surgical intervention, while some do not.Larger hematomas may need to be surgically evacuated in order to resolve.As timeframes of onset differ due to individual contributing factors, a specific timeframe of expected occurrence cannot be established.Medical records were not provided for the revision procedure.Radiographs were provided.Images were not sent to mmi as they are post-revision x-rays, which would not enhance the investigation.Device history record (dhr) was reviewed for deviations and/ or anomalies with no related deviations / anomalies identified.A definitive root cause cannot be determined.This complaint is not confirmed.If any further information is received which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental medwatch will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
