This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The following sections were updated: h6, h11.No device was returned for evaluation; photographs of the device and radiograph images were provided; however, the reported event was unable to be confirmed.Operative notes and/or medical records were not provided for review of usage/ technique.A review of complaint history determined that no further action is required as no trends were identified.A definitive root cause was unable to be determined; however, may have resulted from an insufficient bond between the femoral component and the bone, malalignment between the implants, high contact stresses during knee flexion, third body wear, patient-related conditions, instability, or any combination of these possibilities.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
