A patella clamp is provided for clamping a patella.

The patella clamp may be used to perform a variety of procedures on a patella. In one embodiment, a third clamp member is alternatively mountable in place of the second clamp member to change the function of the patella clamp. The patella clamp optionally further includes a cut guide for guiding a cutter in a cut plane to resect a portion of the patella.
