A hinged knee prosthesis includes a femoral component with a tibiofemoral
articular surface that is distinct from the patellofemoral articulating
surface. Fully congruent tibiofemoral articulation is provided for
virtually all flexion angles. Additionally, the bearing is capable of at
least limited axial rotation relative to the tibial component but is
restrained against dislocation. Accordingly, dislocation is much less
likely even n those situations where collateral ligaments are
insufficient.
