Report numbers: 1038671-2024-01115, 1038671-2024-03043, 1038671-2024-03056 this follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear, bone fracture, tibial loosening, and failure of the cement to secure to femoral component, leading to femoral loosening.An additional contributing factor to the revision may have been inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Additionally, these devices appear to have been implanted for over ten years prior to the reported event.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 and radiographs were not provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
