Abstract

See full text

A knee prosthesis includes a femoral component, a tibial component, a bearing and a control arm. The bearing is in articular bearing engagement with the femoral component and in sliding and rotational bearing engagement with the tibial component. Movement of the bearing relative to the tibial component is controlled by a control arm. Anterior and posterior extremes of the control arm include stops for limiting anterior and posterior movement of the bearing relative to the tibial component. At least one of the stops is removable relative to the control arm to facilitate implantation.
