Abstract
A system for ligament balancing including a range-of-motion (ROM) tensor. The ROM tensor of the system includes a main body, first and second arms, a pin guide and a pin. The main body has an elongate guide. The first and second arms are rigidly attached to and extends laterally from the main body and configured to be placed over an uncut tibia and below an uncut femur. The pin guide is slidably coupled to the elongate guide and has a through-hole for receiving the pin. The ROM tensor is designed to pivot about the pin while the tibia moves through its range of motion while the femur preferably remains stationary. A navigation system monitors the position of the tibia and femur as the tibia moves and the gap information derived from the position monitoring is displayed on a display device.
