Zusammenfassung:According to one example, a posterior-stabilized femoral prosthesis for a knee arthroplasty. The femoral prosthesis can include medial and lateral condyles, a femoral cam and a recess. The medial and lateral condyles can be shaped to articulate with a tibial articular surface of a tibial bearing component through a range of motion, in which full extension corresponds to zero degrees flexion of a knee joint and positive flexion corresponds to greater than zero degrees flexion of the knee joint. In a sagittal plane, the medial and lateral condyles can define medial and lateral multi-radius curves, respectively. The medial multi-radius curve can have a single common radius swept through a first angular extent to define a single arc length that extends from between substantially −20 degrees flexion to substantially 90 degrees flexion, inclusive.
