Abstract

According to one example, a tibial replacement assembly for a knee arthroplasty can be configured to couple to a resected proximal surface of a tibia of a human knee. The tibial replacement assembly can include a tibial tray and a first spike. The tibial tray can include a proximal surface and a distal surface opposing the proximal surface. The distal surface can be configured to be disposed on a resected proximal surface of a tibia. The first spike can be removably secured to the tibial tray and can extend generally distally away from the distal surface. The first spike can be configured to extend beneath the resected proximal surface of the tibia.
