This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The following sections were updated: h3, h6.H3: the revision reported was likely the result of tibial insert and patellar prosthesis wear.Possible causes for polyethylene wear include malalignment between the femoral component and the tibial insert, high contract stress during knee flexion, third body wear, patient-related conditions, inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall with the insert being packaged for over five years prior to implantation, or any combination of these possibilities.
