Abstract
A tibial trial insert system includes a bearing component having a superior articulating surface for articulation with a distal femoral surface, a plate component having an inferior fixation surface for fixation to a proximal tibia, and an adjustment arrangement for adjusting a proximal/distal spacing between the bearing component and the plate component. The adjustment arrangement includes an adjustment device having a superior connector element that engages an inferior surface of the bearing component, an inferior base element adapted to be placed upon a superior surface of the plate component, and a telescopic mechanism coupled to the connector element and the base element. The telescopic mechanism can adjust a thickness of the adjustment device. At least one shim is insertable between the superior surface of the plate component and an inferior surface of the base element for adjusting a height level of the adjustment device relative to the plate component.
