An orthopaedic apparatus includes an elongate member (74), which is inserted into a medullary canal of a femur (24), and a tibia (14). A bearing member (60) is arranged on a first end (74) of the elongate member (74) to bear against a prepared surface of the femur, and tibia. The bearing member (60) is positioned in a plane which is oriented at predetermined angles, taken from a front of the bearing member (60), and a side of the bearing member (60), relative to the elongate member (74). The invention extends to a method of balancing ligament tension in orthopaedic surgery. |
