Abstract:
A knee replacement, a kit for a knee replacement, and a method for performing a knee replacement are provided. A tibial fixed component of the knee replacement is configured to be permanently inserted into a resected tibia of a patient. A tibial modular component of the knee replacement is removably attachable to the tibial fixed component and has an upper surface to interface with a femoral component. The tibial modular component is removable from the tibial fixed component so that in the event that the fit of the knee replacement is not correct, the tibial modular component may be replaced with a differently sized tibial modular component without removing the tibial fixed component from the bone.

Claim (Index 7):
A modular knee replacement kit comprising:\n a tibial fixed component comprised completely of a polyethylene material and configured to be permanently inserted into a resected tibia of a patient the tibial fixed component comprising an array of male or female connectors disposed on an upper surface of the tibial fixed component; and a plurality of tibial modular components that are selectively attachable and detachable to the tibial fixed component while the tibial fixed component is permanently inserted into the resected tibia of the patient, the tibial modular components comprising an array of female or male connectors disposed on a lower surface of the tibial modular components, the female or male connectors of the tibial modular components corresponding to the male and female connectors of the tibial fixed component, the male or female connectors of the tibial fixed component and the female or male connectors of the tibial modular components connecting the tibial modular components to the tibial fixed component, and the plurality of tibial modular components each having a different size and each comprising an upper surface to interface with a femoral component.
