Abstract:
A knee prosthesis kit includes single-winged and double-winged metaphyseal sleeve components. A milling guide and reamers in the kit allow for a cavity to be prepared to receive the metaphyseal sleeve components by pivoting one of the reamers on a portion of the milling guide. The instruments allow the cavity to be aligned with the intramedullary canal regardless of the relative hardness of the bone in the vicinity of the cavity.
