Patellofemoral arthroplasty: Insertion of an artificial joint between the front of the femur and the back of the patella. The femoral component consists of a metal implant, and the patellar component is a polyethylene implant. The two components replace the original articular cartilage of the patellofemoral joint.
The purpose of the retrospective cohort study is 1) to determine preoperative risk factors for revision af patellofemoral arthroplasty, and 2) to provide a detailed description of indications for revision after patellofemoral arthroplasty. All patients operated with patellofemoral arthroplasty in Denmark from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2015, will be included in the cohort.
