Claim One:
1. A femoral component of a knee prosthesis comprising: (a) a distal portion comprising a distal medial condyle articular surface and a distal lateral condyle articular surface, the distal portion extending generally in an anterior to posterior direction between an anterior end and a posterior end of the distal portion, wherein the distal medial and lateral condylar articular surfaces continuously convexly curve from the anterior end to the posterior end of the distal portion; (b) an anterior portion extending generally in a distal to proximal direction away from the anterior end of the distal portion, the anterior portion comprising a trochlear groove, a medial side and a lateral side; and (c) a posterior portion extending generally in the distal to proximal direction away from the posterior end of the distal portion, the posterior portion comprising a posterior medial condyle articular surface and a posterior lateral condyle articular surface; wherein the lateral side of the anterior portion projects further in a posterior to anterior direction than the medial side of the anterior portion; and wherein the distal medial condyle articular surface projects further in a proximal to distal direction than the distal lateral condyle articular surface; and wherein the posterior portion further comprises a planar medial interior surface and a planar lateral interior surface, and wherein a thickness defined by the posterior medial condyle articular surface and the planar medial interior surface is greater than a thickness defined by the posterior lateral condyle articular surface and the planar lateral interior surface.
