A knee joint prosthesis includes tibial (12) and femoral (14) components and a bearing insert (60) designed for unicompartmental prosthetic total knee replacement and can be implanted using arthroscopic surgical techniques. The tibial and femoral prosthesis components have channels or portals (76, 132) therethrough allowing supply of cement to the prosthesis-bone interface after the prosthesis has been positioned for implant. Recesses (74, 124) communicate with the channels and cooperate with the bone surfaces to form cement receiving chambers, and rims (84, 144) at least partially surround the recesses to penetrate the bone surfaces to stabilize the positions of the prostheses and form seals preventing cement from escaping from the prosthesis-bone interfaces.

Prothèse pour l'articulation du genou comprenant des éléments tibial (12) et fémoral (14) et un support insérable (60), destinée au remplacement unicompartimental prothétique complet du genou et pouvant être implantée à l'aide de techniques chirurgicales arthroscopiques. Les éléments tibial et fémoral de la prothèse comportent des canaux ou embouchures (76, 132) les traversant, qui permettent d'introduire le ciment dans l'interface prothèse-os après la mise en place de la prothèse en vue de son implantation. Des évidements (74, 124) communiquent avec les canaux et coopèrent avec la surface de l'os pour former des cavités destinées à recevoir le ciment, et des rebords (84, 144) entourent au moins partiellement les évidements de manière à pénétrer la surface de l'os pour stabiliser les éléments de la prothèse en position correcte et former une obturation qui empêche le ciment de s'échapper de l'interface prothèse-os.
