Abstract

A set of femoral implants for a knee prosthesis includes at least two femoral implants having different dimensions from each other. Each femoral implant includes an outer face suitable for cooperating with one of a patellar implant and a patella of a patient, an inner face provided with an anchoring feature for anchoring to a bone of the patient, as well as a distal part and an anterior part each defined both on the outer face and the inner face. The set is characterized in that at least the distal parts of the femoral implants are substantially identical irrespective of the dimensions of the femoral implants.
