The invention concerns a femoral component (1) comprising a trochlea (2), a pair of condyles, and distal (6) and posterior (7) blocks adjusting the thickness of the condyles, a couple of said blocks being designed to be fixed to at least one of the condyles; one (7) of the blocks is extended by an extension (22) adapted to be urged in position between the condyle (3) surface and the second block, and a single element (14) is arranged for fixing the two blocks; the extension is advantageously a lug (22) including an end part (22c) urged to enclose a boss (12) provided in the condyle (3) distal part, the two blocks (6, 7) being fixed by a screw with a countersunk screw passing through the distal block (6) and the boss (12). The bone adjusting blocks (6, 7) may be used either singly or in combination and can be easily set by the surgeon owing to their single fixing means.

Cet implant fémoral (1) comprend une trochlée (2), une paire de condyles (3) reliés à la trochlée, ainsi que des cales distale (6) et postérieure (7) d'ajustement de l'épaisseur des condyles, une paire de ces cales étant prévue pour être fixée à au moins l'un des condyles; l'une (7) des cales est prolongée par une extension (22) adaptée pour pouvoir venir se placer entre la surface du condyle (3) et la seconde cale, et un moyen unique (14) de fixation des deux cales est prévu; l'extension est avantageusement une patte (22) comportant une partie terminale (22c) venant entourer un bossage (12) aménagé dans la partie distale du condyle (3), la fixation des deux cales (6, 7) pouvant être assurée par une vis à tête fraisée traversant la cale distale (6) et le bossage (12). Les cales (6, 7) d'ajustement osseux peuvent être utilisées soit isolément soit en combinaison et sont d'une mise en oeuvre aisée par le chirurgien grâce à leur moyen unique de fixation.
