Content
In some embodiments, the tibial baseplate component 2840 and the femoral component 2801 may be symmetric, as mentioned previously, enabling them to be used for either left or right knee replacements. In certain embodiments, the tibial insert 2810 may be specific to one side of a patient or the other. An assembly for either left or right knee arthroplasty may include a single femoral component 2801, a single tibial baseplate component 2840, and two (e.g., left and right) inserts 2410, 2810. This may greatly reduce the inventory requirements for the system.
