Abstract: A hinged orthopaedic prosthesis system includes a hinged femoral component, a housing assembly, and a tibial component. The hinged femoral component is configured to be coupled to the housing assembly such that the hinged femoral component is capable of rotation about a flexion-extension axis of rotation. The tibial component is configured to be coupled includes a tibial articular surface on which a femoral articular surface of the hinged femoral component articulates when rotated about the flexion-extension axis of rotation. Additionally, the femoral articular surface includes a curved surface section having a constant radius of curvature through a defined range of flexion of the hinged femoral component.

Abstract: An orthopaedic prosthesis system includes a femoral component configured to be attached to a distal end of a patient's femur. A tibial tray is configured to be attached to a proximal end of a patient's tibia. A tibial insert is configured to be positioned between the femoral component and the tibial tray. An elongated pin rotatably couples the tibial insert to the femoral component.

Abstract: An orthopaedic surgical instrument configured to assist a surgeon seat or engage a femoral component with a tibial bearing or other tibial component. The instrument may include a displacement device configured to displace the tibia and femur to permit the surgeon to position a femoral component for seating on a tibial bearing and/or a retaining mechanism configured to maintain the tibial bearing in rotational alignment with the femoral component while seating the femoral component on the tibial bearing.

Abstract: An orthopaedic prosthesis assembly includes a first prosthetic component, a second prosthetic component, and a fastener. The first prosthetic component includes a threaded bore. The second prosthetic component includes an opening and a threaded inner wall that extends inwardly from the opening. The fastener includes a first axial section having a first plurality of threads engaged with the threaded inner wall the second prosthetic component, and a second axial section having a second plurality of threads engaged with the threaded bore of the first prosthetic component to secure the first prosthetic component to the second prosthetic component.

Abstract: An orthopedic prosthesis assembly includes a first prosthetic component, a second prosthetic component, a retainer, and a fastener and allows the removal of the first prosthetic component without having to remove the second prosthetic component from an intramedullary canal of a patient's bone. The fastener is received in an aperture of the first prosthetic component and the retainer is configured to engage the aperture of the first prosthetic component such that a part of the fastener is secured within the aperture. A rod of the fastener is configured to advance along the longitudinal axis through the first prosthetic component into the second prosthetic component. The end of the rod of the fastener is threaded into a threaded bore defined in the second prosthetic component.
