It has a grit blasted underside with cement grooves to promote superior cement adhesion and four convergent pegs to provide long term fixation. The JOURNEY Patellofemoral Joint is a femoral knee implant. Indications for patellofemoral replacement include: 1. Degenerative arthritis in the distal femur and patella; 2. A history of patellar dislocation or patellar fracture; and 3. Failed previous surgery (arthroplasty, tibial tubercle elevation, lateral release) where pain, deformity or dysfunction persists.
