It should be noted that in the illustrated embodiment a surgeon may deploy the tibial insert 2910a in a left knee because the knee has a condition. However, the tibial insert 2910a may also be deployed (e.g., is suitable for implantation) in a patient’s right knee joint that lacks the condition. As used herein, “suitable for implantation” refers to device or implant configured such that deployment of the implant in a patient will result in a desired impact on the health and/or wellbeing of the patient. While the tibial insert 2910a may be designed for deployment in a right knee joint that lacks a condition, or has a balanced condition, the tibial insert 2910a is illustrated in FIG. 29 being deployed in a left knee joint that has a varus condition of about eight degrees.
