  • Surgically implantable knee prosthesis having different tibial and femoral surface profiles
    Publication number: 20030055501
    Abstract: An implantable knee prosthesis includes a body having a substantially elliptical shape in plan and a pair of opposed faces. A first one of the faces has a first shape and a second one of the faces has a second shape different from the first shape. A peripheral edge extends at an incline between the first face and the second face.

  • Surgically implantable knee prothesis
    Patent number: 6206927
    Abstract: A self-centering meniscal prosthesis device suitable for minimally invasive, surgical implantation into the cavity between a femoral condyle and the corresponding tibial plateau is composed of a hard, high modulus material shaped such that the contour of the device and the natural articulation of the knee exerts a restoring force on the free-floating device.
