Abstract
An orthopaedic prosthesis includes a femoral component configured to be coupled to a surgically-prepared surface of the distal end of a femur and a plate having an aperture defined therein. The plate is configured to be coupled to the femoral component in one of a number of orientations such that the location of the aperture is adjustable based on the orientation of the plate. The orthopaedic prosthesis also includes a stem configured to be coupled to the femoral component via a bolt. The position of the stem relative to the femoral component is adjustable based on the orientation of the plate.
