Zusammenfassung: | A tibial tray for a resurfaced proximal portion of a tibia for a knee replacement for a patient includes, for example, a body having a superior portion, and an inferior tibia-engaging portion having a peripheral inferiorly-extending portion contactable with an underlying cortical bone and/or spaced apart from the underlying inner surface of the cortical of the tibia of the patient. In some embodiments in the total knee replacement, a greater portion of a shearing force acting transversely on the tibial tray and the resected portion of the proximal portion of the tibia of the patient is resisted by the at least one inferiorly-extending wall and the periphery of the resected proximal portion of the tibia compared to a portion of the shearing force being resisted along the center inferior surface of the tibial tray and the resected cancellous bone surface. Methods, robotic systems, and cutting guides are also disclosed. |
