Abstract

A unicondylar femoral component for use in a partial knee arthroplasty. A
femoral component of the present invention comprises a post and a flange having a pre-determined angle there between whereby a clamping force is placed on a patient's distal femur to hold the implant in place. The implant further comprises a porous layer on its bone contacting surface. In an alternative embodiment the femoral component is attached to the distal femur at least two threaded fasteners.

Claims (10)

1. A femoral component of a unicondylar endoprosthetic knee, wherein said femoral component is attached to a distal femur during a partial knee arthroplasty, the component comprising:
a convex arcuated articulating surface having a desired shape;
a bone contacting surface disposed opposite the articulating surface, wherein the bone contacting surface comprises a post extending from the bone contacting surface;
a flange disposed at the anterior end of the femoral component such that an angle of between about 1 degree and about 15 degrees is formed between the flange and the post.
2. The femoral component of claim 1, wherein the component comprises a material selected from the group consisting of cobalt-chrome alloy, titanium alloy, commercially pure titanium, and commercially pure cobalt.
3. The femoral component of claim 1, further comprising a porous layer attached to the bone contacting surface.
