Content
In one embodiment, the tibial articulation surface 2812 is configured to include one or more of a medial tibial compartment 2813, a lateral tibial compartment 2814, a medial articulation surface 2820, a lateral articulation surface 2821, and/or high and/or low points within the medial articulation surface 2820, and/or the lateral articulation surface 2821 to remediate a condition of the knee joint into which the knee prosthesis system 2900 deployed. In one embodiment, the tibial articulation surface 2812 contour and/or features adjust mediolateral stability during flexion of a first knee joint having a varus condition: is a varus knee joint. In one embodiment, a tibial articulation surface 2812 of the tibial insert 2910a may adjust mediolateral stability by increasing constraint on a lateral collateral ligament of the first knee joint and decreases tension on a medial collateral ligament of the first knee joint.
