Additional information: g3, h3, h6.The device was not received and an evaluation on the product could not be performed.The reported event cannot be verified.The most likely root cause may be attributed to a patient-specific event, potentially involving bone remodeling or degradation over time, device wear, or loosening from the initial implantation, as well as anatomical changes following the initial surgery.
