2 Degrees Valgus Recut Guide
Insert the Persona Drop Rod Adapter into the tibial cut
guide. Place the alignment rod with coupler into the
drop rod adaptor and assess the cut (Figure 99).
If a valgus correction cut is needed, place the valgus
recut guide on the resected tibial plateau by attaching
the alignment rod with coupler and the NexGen PRI
Alignment Adaptor. Align with the medial 1/3 of the
tubercle. Once it has been determined that the desired
correction cut will be attained, slide the medial portion
of the valgus recut guide so it is flush with the medial
portion of the tibial cortex to provide a planar recut of
the tibia. Affix with 3.2 mm trocar tipped pins using the
pin and screw inserter.
Technique Tip:
The fixation holes for the valgus
recut guide are at oblique angles to improve fixation
of the guide.
Perform resection, remove trocar tipped pins, and the
valgus recut guide (Figure 100).
