Intended Use
The Smith & Nephew Patello-Femoral Implant is indicated for replacement of the femoral side of the patello-femoral joint. It is intended to be used in patellofemoral arthroplasty in patients with degenerative arthritis in the distal femur and patients with a history of patellar dislocation or patellar fracture, and patients with failed previous surgery (arthroplasty, tibial tubercle elevation, and lateral release) where pain, deformity or dysfunction persists. The components are for single use only and are intended for implantation with bone cement.
Device Story
The Smith & Nephew Patello-Femoral Implant is a metallic prosthetic component designed to replace the articulating surface of the femoral trochlea. It is intended for use in orthopedic surgery to address degenerative arthritis or post-traumatic conditions of the patellofemoral joint. The device is manufactured from Oxinium and is available in multiple sizes (x-small, medium, large) for left and right configurations. It is implanted by a surgeon using bone cement. The trochlear groove geometry is derived from the previously cleared Genesis II Total Knee Femoral Component. By providing a smooth, artificial articulating surface, the implant aims to restore joint function, reduce pain, and correct deformity in patients who have failed conservative or prior surgical interventions.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on design, material, and geometric comparisons to legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Oxinium. Design: Semiconstrained, cemented prosthesis. Configuration: Available in x-small, medium, and large sizes, left and right. Trochlear groove geometry matches the Genesis II Total Knee Femoral Component (K951987).
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring femoral side patello-femoral joint replacement due to degenerative arthritis of the distal femur and patella, history of patellar dislocation or fracture, or failed prior surgeries (arthroplasty, tibial tubercle elevation, lateral release) with persistent pain, deformity, or dysfunction.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A knee joint patellofemoral polymer/metal semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint in the treatment of primary patellofemoral arthritis or chondromalacia. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes a component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum or austenitic steel, for resurfacing the intercondylar groove (femoral sulcus) on the anterior aspect of the distal femur, and a patellar component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those devices intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027). The patellar component is designed to be implanted only with its femoral component.
