Event or Problem Description

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional and/or corrected information.The following sections were updated: b5, h6, h11.The following sections were corrected: h6.No device was returned for evaluation; radiograph images were provided; however, the reported event was unable to be confirmed.The review identified that based on the pre-revision radiographs, it appears that the tibial tray may be externally rotated in relation to the femoral component.However, this cannot be confirmed from the information provided.All other aspects appear unremarkable for implanted components.Images were provided of the explanted tibial component.There does not appear to be any volumetric wear along the articular surface of the explanted tibial insert.It remains unclear whether there is wear/damage along the superior aspect of the tibial spine, or whether it is remnants of blood and/or fluid.Evaluation of the patella component for wear cannot be performed as images were not provided and the component was not revised.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 prosthesis wear of the patella component as reported.However, this cannot be confirmed and potential contributions of user or patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the patella component remains implanted and no images of the affected product were provided.If any further information is obtained that would change or alter any information provided, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
 
Event or Problem Description
Additional information received indicates that the patella component was not revised.
