A system configured to design a customized implant includes a cutting tool, a tracker, and design software. The cutting tool is configured to resect bone from an anatomical bone along a cutting path, thereby creating a contoured bone surface. The tracker is configured to track at least a portion of the cutting path and store the at least a portion of the cutting path in a memory. The design software is configured to design an implant having a contoured implant surface that matches the contoured bone surface based at least in part on the stored cutting path.

Customized implant 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 and method for preparing a patient's femur in an orthopaedic joint replacement procedure

An orthopaedic knee prosthesis includes a tibial bearing and a femoral component configured to articulate with the tibial bearing. The femoral component includes a posterior cam configured to contact a spine of the tibial bearing and a condyle surface curved in the sagittal plane. The radius of curvature of the condyle surface decreases gradually between early-flexion and mid-flexion. Additionally, in some embodiments, the radius of curvature of the condyle surface may be increased during mid-flexion.

Orthopaedic knee prosthesis having controlled condylar curvature

An orthopaedic knee prosthesis includes a femoral component having a condyle surface. The condyle surface is defined by one or more radii of curvatures, which are controlled to reduce or delay the onset of anterior translation of the femoral component relative to a tibial bearing.

An orthopaedic surgical instrument system includes a first broach including a first end configured to be separately secured to a handle and a tapered body having a plurality of cutting teeth defined therein, and a second broach including a first end configured to be separately secured to the handle in place of the first broach, a first tapered body extending distally from a second end positioned opposite the first end, and a second tapered body extending distally from the first tapered body. The tapered body of the first broach and the first tapered body of the second broach have a first outer geometry and the second tapered body has a second outer geometry different from the first outer geometry.

Method and system including sleeves and broaches for surgically preparing the patient's bone

Method for preparing a patient's femur in an orthopaedic joint replacement procedure

A number of orthopaedic surgical instruments for use in a surgical procedure to prepare a patient's femur to receive an orthopedic prosthesis. The tools include guide tools, cutting tools, surgical blocks, and other orthopaedic surgical instruments configured to plan and guide the preparation of the patient's femur. A method of using the orthopaedic surgical instruments is also disclosed.

Femoral orthopaedic instrument assembly for setting offset

Method and surgical instrument system with multiple lengths of broaches sharing a common geometry

A number of orthopedic surgical instruments for use in a surgical procedure to prepare a patient's femur to receive an orthopedic prosthesis. The tools include guide tools, cutting tools, surgical blocks, and other orthopedic surgical instruments configured to plan and guide the preparation of the patient's femur. A method of using the orthopedic surgical instruments is also disclosed.
