Abstract

An orthopaedic surgical system for a total knee implant includes a plurality of commonly-sized femoral trial components. Each commonly-sized femoral trial component includes a first femoral condyle having a first articulation surface configured to engage a tibial component, and a second femoral condyle may be spaced apart from the first femoral condyle. The second femoral condyle has a second articulation surface configured to engage the tibial component. An anterior cam is positioned between the first femoral condyle and the second femoral condyle. A method of using such a system is also disclosed.
