Femur
With all bone surfaces and soft tissues prepared,
complete a trial reduction.
• Place the femoral trial onto the femur with dedicated
femoral impactor (110004685) (Figure 47).
• The femoral trial should be centered medially and laterally
over the femoral notch to avoid ACL impingement.
eXPert Advice: If the ACL touches the femoral component
during range-of-motion, it is strongly recommended the
ACL be sacrificed and the knee be converted to a posterior
cruciate retaining device. Failure to convert to a posterior
cruciate retaining device may lead to joint pain and
dysfunction.
If ACL/femoral component contact occurs, it will most
likely occur in full extension or hyperextension.
• Fully extend the limb and observe the position
of the ACL relative to the posterior side of the femoral
component notch.
