TIBIAL BASEPLATE WITH ASYMMETRIC PLACEMENT OF FIXATION STRUCTURES

摘要

An orthopaedic knee prosthesis is provided including a tibial baseplate component having a distal, bone-contacting surface with one or more fixation structures extending distally therefrom, in which the fixation structures are asymmetrically arranged within the baseplate periphery.

主权项

1. A tibial prosthesis system comprising:
a first tibial baseplate comprising:
a first proximal surface;a first distal surface opposite the first proximal surface, the first distal surface sized and shaped to substantially cover a proximal resected surface of a tibia;a first medial face;a first lateral face opposite the first medial face;a first total width measured from the first medial face to the first lateral face; anda first keel extending distally from the first distal surface, the first keel spaced from the first medial face by a first medial distance and spaced apart from the first lateral face by a first lateral distance; and a second tibial baseplate comprising:
a second proximal surface;a second distal surface opposite the second proximal surface, the second distal surface sized and shaped to substantially cover a proximal resected surface of a tibia;a second medial face;a second lateral face opposite the second medial face;a second total width measured between the second medial face and the second lateral face, the second total width differing from the first total width whereby the first and second tibial baseplates comprise unique nominal sizes; anda second keel extending distally from the second distal surface, the second keel spaced apart from the second medial face by a second medial distance and spaced apart from the second lateral face by a second lateral distance, a first ratio of the first medial distance to the first total width differing from a second ratio of the second medial distance to the second total width.
