Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
The reason for the revision reported cannot be confirmed from the information provided but may be the result of prosthesis wear, patient conditions, and/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 and radiographs were not provided.
