Abstract: A patient matched instrument is disclosed. The patient matched instrument includes a body having an interior patient matched surface; a cutting slot extending through at least a portion of the body; a first paddle extending from the body; and a second paddle spaced apart from the first paddle and extending from the body; and wherein at least one of the first paddle and the second paddle further comprises a hook.

Abstract: An alignment guide includes a main body sized and shaped to contact the proximal end of a tibia, and a retaining guide coupled to the main body. The retaining guide includes guide surfaces and is adjustable relative to the main body such that an operator can intra-operatively adjust the position of the guide surfaces relative to the main body to capture the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament between the guide surfaces.

Abstract: A tibial cutting guide includes upper and lower portions having patient-matched surfaces. The upper portion defines resection slots for forming resections about the tibial eminence. The lower portion defines two pin slots for receiving alignment pins such that in use the position of the resection slots relative to the tibial eminence can be adjusted by sliding the cutting guide along the alignment pins placed in the tibia through the pin slots. The lower portion defines a resection slot for guiding a saw blade to form a horizontal plateau resection, and two pin holes for receiving fixation pins. A method includes positioning a patient-matched cutting guide on the proximal tibia; intra-operatively adjusting the position of the cutting guide in two degrees of freedom by sliding the cutting guide along fixation pins placed in the tibia; and resecting the tibia about the tibial eminence.

Abstract: A patient matched instrument for a patient's femur is disclosed. The instrument includes a body having a cutting slot and a patient matched surface that mates with the patient's trochlear groove, a first leg portion extending from the body, a second leg portion extending from the body; and each leg portion has a contacting pad for tangential contact with the patient's femoral medial and lateral condyles.
