Abstract
A chamfer resection guide assembly for effecting chamfer cuts into a resected distal surface of a femur in connection with a distal total knee implant has an anchor member configured for anterior referencing of the chamfer cuts, a block member including one or more cutting guide slots for guiding a cutting tool for making chamfer resections and a camming member. The camming member operably connects the block member and the anchor member and the position of the block member with respect to the anchor member is adjusted by operation of the camming member thus allowing adjustment of the position of the cutting guide slots with respect to the anchoring member.
