Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The revision reported was likely the result of femoral stem loosening.However this cannot be confirmed and 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, radiographs, and relevant clinical information were not provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
