Abstract
A guide device for knee replacement is configured such that during knee replacement surgery and/or knee replacement revision surgery for implanting a prosthetic knee implant, a degree of external rotation of a femur is identified and aligned through a cut surface of a proximal tibia, then a distance of a gap between the cut surface of the proximal tibia and a cut surface of a distal femur is identified during the surgery, so the degree of external rotation and the distance of the gap are identified simultaneously with one guide device, and thereby it is possible to facilitate the surgery, thereby reducing operation time and minimizing occurrence of a sequela of operation.
