A total knee implant prosthesis is disclosed. The total knee implant prosthesis includes a tibial component including a pair of bearing surfaces and a post positioned between the bearing surfaces, and a femoral component configured to rotate relative to the tibial component. The femoral component includes a pair of condyles sized and shaped to articulate on the bearing surfaces and a cam positioned between the pair of condyles. The cam engages the post at a first contact point when the femoral component is at 0 degrees of flexion and engages the post at a second contact point located lateral of the first contact point when the femoral component is at a first degree of flexion greater than 0 degrees. The cam is disengaged from the post when the femoral component is at a second degree of flexion greater than the first degree of flexion.

Total knee implant prosthesis assembly and method

An orthopaedic joint replacement system is shown and described. The system includes a number of prosthetic components configured to be implanted into a patient's knee. The system also includes a number of surgical instruments configured for use in preparing the bones of the patient's knee to receive the implants. A method or technique for using the surgical instruments to prepare the bones is also disclosed.

System including femoral augment trials and method of performing an orthopaedic joint replacement procedure

A trial kit for a hinged knee implant system is disclosed. The trial kit includes a tibial base plate trial, an adaptor and a tibial bearing insert trial. The adaptor and insert trial can be assembled and the assembly mounted on the tray trial by sliding the assembly in an anterior-posterior direction on the tray trial. The adaptor has a post with a cross-piece. The insert trial has openings and channels to receive the post and cross-piece. The openings are sized, shaped and oriented so that the cross-piece of the elongate post must be oriented in different directions to pass through the different openings.
