Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The reason for the revision reported was likely due to tibial loosening and femoral loosening, but may have been reported at this later date due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Additionally, the femoral component and tibial tray appear to have been implanted for over ten years prior to the reported event.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.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
