Step Four
Finish the Femur
Anterior Referencing Technique
Select the correct size MIS Femoral
Finishing Guide (silver colored) or
MIS Flex Femoral Finishing Guide
(gold colored) as determined by
the measurement from the A/P
Sizing Guide. An additional 2mm
(approximately) of bone is removed
from the posterior condyles when
using the Flex Finishing Guide.
Place the finishing guide onto the
distal femur, over the headless pins
(Fig. 4a). This determines the A/P
position and rotation of the guide.
Remove any lateral osteophytes
that may interfere with guide
placement. Position the finishing
guide mediolaterally by sliding it on
the headless pins. The width of the
finishing guide replicates the width
of the
NexGen
CR Femoral Component.
The width of the flex finishing guide
replicates the width of the
NexGen
LPS, LPS-Flex, and CR-Flex
Femoral Components.
When the M/L position of the Femoral
Finishing Guide is set, use the Screw
Inserter/Extractor to insert a 3.2mm
Headed Screw or predrill and insert
a Hex-head Holding Pin through the
superior pinhole on the beveled medial
side of the guide (Fig. 4b). Then secure
the lateral side in the same manner. If
needed, predrill and insert two Short-
head Holding Pins through the inferior
holes on one or both sides of the guide.
For additional stability, use 6.5mm
screws in the peg holes.
Remove the headless pins from the
Femoral Finishing Guide (Fig. 4c) with
the Headless Pin Puller.
Use the Resection Guide through the
anterior cutting slot of the finishing
guide, and check the medial and lateral
sides to be sure the cut will not notch
the anterior femoral cortex (Fig. 4d).
