Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The revision reported was likely the result of infection, however this cannot be confirmed.Additional reasons for the reported revision may be inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall and prosthesis wear.Localized deformation of the posterior lip of the tibial insert was noted, but overall, the insert was unremarkable for an implanted device.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and relevant clinical information were not provided.D4: corrected.D6: corrected.G4: corrected.H6: corrected component and investigation clinical codes.
