Content

The femoral component 2801 may be posterior stabilizing or cruciate retaining. In FIG. 28A, the femoral component 2801, the tibial insert 2810, and the tibial baseplate component 2840 are shown in flexion. The femoral component 2801 may include medial condyle 2802 and lateral condyle 2803, similar to femoral component 114 in FIG. 9. The medial 2802 and lateral 2803 condyles may include medial condylar articulation surface 2804 and lateral condylar articulation surface 2805. The femoral component 2801 may include elements to secure the femoral component 2801 to a femur of a patient. For example, the femoral component 2801 may include at least one keel 2806 and at least one post 2807 that penetrate the bone of the associated femur (not shown) to secure the femoral component 2801 to the femur. The at least one post 2807 may be placed on the femoral side of the medial condyle 2802 and/or the lateral condyle 2803. The femoral component 2801 may include surface texturing on a bone-facing side to encourage bone in-growth and securement.
