Intended Use

The Avon® Patello-femoral Prosthesis is a single-use device intended for replacement of the femoral side of the patello-femoral joint. Indications and are listed below. The Avon® Patello-femoral Joint Prosthesis is intended to be used in cemented patellofemoral arthroplasty in patients with degenerative arthritis in the distal femur and patella, patients with a history of patellar dislocation or patella fracture, or patients with failed previous surgery (arthroscopy, tibial tubercle elevation, lateral release) where pain, deformity or dysfunction persists. These components are single use only and arc intended for implantation with bone cement.

Device Story

Avon® Patello-femoral Joint (PFJ) Prosthesis is a semi-constrained, cemented knee implant system. System comprises cobalt-chromium femoral components (four sizes) and all-polyethylene patellar components (various sizes/styles). Device is a line extension to existing Avon® PFJ system; adds new patellar component styles. Intended for surgical implantation by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to replace the femoral side of the patello-femoral joint. Implanted using bone cement. Benefits include pain relief and restoration of joint function for patients with degenerative arthritis or history of patellar trauma/failed surgery.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence based on design, material, and operational principle similarity to predicate devices, supported by bench testing demonstrating compatibility of new patellar components with existing femoral components.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Cobalt-chromium femoral components, all-polyethylene patellar components. Design: Semi-constrained, cemented prosthesis. Form factor: Multi-size femoral and patellar components. Sterilization: Not specified. Connectivity: N/A. Software: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring cemented patellofemoral arthroplasty due to degenerative arthritis of the distal femur and patella, history of patellar dislocation or fracture, or failed previous surgeries (e.g., arthroscopy, 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.
