    THIS FOLLOW-UP REPORT IS BEING SUBMITTED TO RELAY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. NO PRODUCT WAS RETURNED OR PICTURES PROVIDED; VISUAL AND DIMENSIONAL EVALUATIONS COULD NOT BE PERFORMED. THE REPORTED EVENT IS UNCONFIRMED. HETEROTOPIC OSSIFICATION (HO) IS THE ABNORMAL AND RAPID GROWTH OF BONE THAT FORMS WITHIN SOFT TISSUE AS THE RESULT OF HEREDITY, TRAUMA, SURGICAL HISTORY, OR DISEASES OF A JOINT. THE RAPID AND IRREGULAR GROWTH OF BONE OFTEN CAUSES A SHARP OR JUTTED STRUCTURE TO FORM, WHICH CAN RESULT IN PAIN AND IRRITATION TO THE SURROUNDING TISSUES, OR THE PATIENT CAN REMAIN ASYMPTOMATIC. RADIATION OR NONSTEROIDAL ANTI-INFLAMMATORY MEDICATIONS ARE OFTEN PROVIDED TO PREVENT HO FORMATION. THE ONLY TREATMENT, IF NECESSARY, IS SURGICAL EXCISION OR SHAVING/SMOOTHING OUT THE EXCESS BONE. AS TIMEFRAMES OF ONSET DIFFER DUE TO INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTING FACTORS, A SPECIFIC TIMEFRAME OF EXPECTED OCCURRENCE CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED. IF ANY FURTHER INFORMATION IS FOUND THAT WOULD CHANGE OR ALTER ANY CONCLUSIONS OR INFORMATION, A SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT WILL BE FILED ACCORDINGLY. ZIMMER BIOMET WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR FOR TRENDS. THIS REPORT IS BEING SUBMITTED TO UPDATE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN SECTIONS B4, B5, D4, G3, G6, H2, H3, H4, H6, H10 AND H11.
