This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The following sections were updated/corrected: h6.Mdr section codes updated/corrected: b, c, g.The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of patellar loosening or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Failure of the cement used to secure the patella implant to the patellar bone, may have lead to loosening at the cement-bone interface; however, this cannot be confirmed.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
