  • Modular knee prosthesis
    Patent number: 8277513
    Abstract: A joint prosthesis may include a tibial tray, a tibial base, a tibial articular member, and a femoral articular member. A coupler may engage the tray, and optionally the base, with an interference fit. An interference fit may be engaged using a mating surface with a constant non-tapering cross-sectional geometry.

  • Tapered joint prosthesis
    Patent number: 7572297
    Abstract: A joint prosthesis may include a modular head member, a modular body member, and a stem member. The stem member may be so tapered as to be engageable by taper press-fit into the medullary cavity of a bone. The body member may be engageable in the stem member by friction-tight press-fit at a zone of diametrical interference.
