The aim of this study was to review the early
outcome of the Femoro-Patella Vialla (FPV) joint replacement. A
total of 48 consecutive FPVs were implanted between December 2007
and June 2011. Case-note analysis was performed to evaluate the
indications, operative histology, operative findings, post-operative
complications and reasons for revision. The mean age of the patients
was 63.3 years (48.2 to 81.0) and the mean follow-up was
25.0 months (6.1 to 48.9). Revision was performed in seven (14.6%)
at a mean of 21.7 months, and there was one re-revision. Persistent
pain was observed in three further patients who remain unrevised.
The reasons for revision were pain due to progressive tibiofemoral
disease in five, inflammatory arthritis in one, and patellar fracture following
trauma in one. No failures were related to the implant or the technique.
