We report the incidence of osteolysis in the femur, tibia, and patella of 44 consecutive patients (60 knees) who were followed for more than seven years after cementless knee arthroplasty with a Porous-Coated Anatomic prosthesis. The average age of the patients was 56.5 years (17 to 73); the operative diagnosis was osteoarthritis (33 knees), rheumatoid arthritis (17), tuberculous arthritis (7) and post-traumatic arthritis (3). All patellae were resurfaced. No femoral or tibial component was loose at the final follow-up examination. Thirty patellar components were loose of which six had been revised. Radiographs revealed osteolysis in 90% of the tibial plateaux and in 80% of the 30 intact patellar prostheses. No osteolysis was seen around any femoral component. In 50 knees (83%) the average wear of the polyethylene liner was 2.5 mm in the medial compartment and 1.7 mm in the lateral compartment. Four of 60 knees (6.7%) were revised for complete wear of the polyethylene liner of the tibial component. Fixation of the tibial and patellar components without cement fails to seal the interface between bone and prosthesis and allows the migration of polyethylene particulate debris which causes osteolysis.
