This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The following sections were updated/corrected: h6.Mdr section codes updated/corrected: b.The reason for the revision reported cannot be determined from the available information but may have been reported at this later time due to inclusion of one of the implanted devices in the packaging recall.Based on length of implantation, the reason for revision appears unlikely to be secondary to prosthesis wear.However, the reported prosthesis wear/failure could not be confirmed and potential contributions of manufacturing, user, or patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as no images or radiographs were provided, relevant clinical information was not provided and the devices were not available for evaluation.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
