This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The following sections were updated: h3, h6, h11.The devices were not returned for analysis.No images, radiographs, or patient information were provided.The hhe noted, there is evidence that a moderately higher risk of edge-loading and premature prosthesis wear is possible in a specific subset of patients with certain implant configurations and surgical implant positioning.A number of variables including use error, implant positioning, implant size selection, and patient factors (fitness for surgery, biomechanics, activity level and local tissue oxidation potential) could have all contributed to the increased trend in wear/osteolysis.Additionally, increased shelf oxidation resulting from the use of nylon vacuum bags without evoh could also have contributed to the increased trend in wear/osteolysis.Patients with increased risk tend to present with signs for prosthesis wear and subsequent particle-induced osteolysis within the first 5 years after the index arthroplasty and have the following characteristics: significant edge loading of the femoral head on the acetabular liner, patients implanted with a lateralized liner, patients in whom the largest available femoral head and/or thinnest available acetabular liner was used, and patients implanted with a component having a shelf age of greater than 2 years.Those patients having a combination of risk factors will have the highest risk for early wear and lysis.This patient was implanted with a combination of the largest available femoral head and/or the thinnest available acetabular liner was used and implanted with a component having a shelf age of greater than 2 years.Should additional relevant information be obtained, a follow-up mdr will be submitted accordingly.
