64680-297D KNEE PROSTHESIS Abstract A novel method for replacing a previously implanted knee joint prosthesis in a patient is disclosed in which the previously implanted femoral component is replaced with a revision femoral component having thicker distal and posterior bearing portions so as to restore the natural anatomic transverse joint plane and collateral ligamentous balance in extension and flexion of the prosthetic joint. Instrumentation for use in this method includes a novel revision cutting jig which is used in the preparation of the distal end of the femur for the implantation of the revision femoral component.
