The medial 2402 and lateral 2403 condyles may include the medial condylar articulation surface 2404 and the lateral condylar articulation surface 2405. The femoral component 2401 may include elements to secure the femoral component 2401 in the femur of the patient. For example, the femoral component 2401 may include at least one keel 2406 and at least one post 2407 that penetrate the bone of the associated femur (not shown) to secure the femoral component 2401 to the femur. The at least one post 2407 may be placed on the femoral side of the medial condyle 2402 and/or the lateral condyle 2403. The femoral component 2401 may include surface texturing on the bone-facing side to encourage bone in-growth and securement.
