Abstract
This invention provides a rotation alignment device for aligning the tibia with the femur of a patient prior to placement of prosthetic knee components. The device allows the patient's normal, habitual rotation of the tibia with respect to the femur to be preserved when the prosthesis is placed. It also allows the bones to be moved to any desired position prior to placement of the prosthetic components, including a position dictated by alignment of the long axes of the tibia and femur.
