The present disclosure relates to a knee joint augment having an anatomical shape. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to a knee joint augment that is used for artificial joint replacement to replace lost bone, wherein the augment is used in artificial knee replacement surgery to be coupled to a knee implant. The augment includes a top surface configured to be brought into contact with a distal surface of a base plate that forms the body of a tibia element and a bottom surface configured to be brought into contact with a cut surface of a tibia. The bottom surface has an area smaller than that of the top surface, and has a tapered shape that narrows from the top to the bottom. An intermediate line at which one end surface cut to be perpendicular to the top surface and an outer surface meet each other has a shape that is outwardly convex to the outside of the augment with respect to a straight line connecting a top point where the intermediate line and the top surface meet and a bottom point where the intermediate line meets the bottom surface, whereby the intermediate line has a shape corresponding to the anatomical shape of a cut bone.

A knee trial which is coupled to identify the mobility of an implant before the implant is implanted by total knee arthroplasty, and more particularly, a detachable knee trial which includes a plate trial, an insert trial, and an adapter for easy attachment and detachment of the two trials, wherein the adapter includes an elastic member on one side thereof to firmly couple the two trials by pressing the plate trial and the insert trial with opposite ends of the elastic member and to alleviate the burdens of an operator and a patient by allowing the adapter to be attached and detached even only with a simple operation of pressing the adapter and compressing the elastic member by a hand and promptly and precisely performing an operation of selecting an implant of a suitable size while applying various trials in the total knee arthroplasty process and shortening surgery time, alleviating the burdens of a surgeon and a patient, and wherein one side of the adapter is formed of plastic, making it possible to couple the plate trial and the plate implant without leaving a flaw and the like in the plate trial and the plate implant.

Detachable knee trial

A baseplate trial holding apparatus which holds a baseplate trial disposed in a proximal tibia during total knee arthroplasty or revision total knee arthroplasty, and includes a keel location setting part for setting an insertion location of a keel punch, and a knee joint implant surgical instrument set including the same.

The present invention relates to a coupler assembly for a tibial cutting guide, the assembly including an aligning coupler having a first side coupled to an aligning member by sliding and a second side slid in an adaptor groove of the tibial cutting guide, and a handle slidably coupled to the aligning coupler. More particularly, the present invention relates to a coupler assembly for a tibial cutting guide, the assembly enabling an aligner and a cutting guide to be easily coupled and decoupled through an adaptor without specific operation because when the handle is slid to the cutting guide, the handle is fixed to the cutting guide, and the cutting guide and the adaptor are locked, and when the handle is slid in the opposite direction from the cutting guide, the handle is separated from the cutting guide, and the cutting guide and the adaptor are unlocked.
