摘要
A prosthetic knee implant (40) for implantation into a mammal, which accommodates an anterior cruciate ligament substitute to provide stability to the knee implant (40). The prosthetic knee implant includes a femoral component (41) having a pair of condylar surfaces (42,43) and a tibial component (60) having a surface portion adapted to slidably engage the femoral component (41) upon rotation of the same. The femoral component (41) further includes a central femoral recess (45) between the condyles (42,43) providing access to the femur for drilling a channel (46) through which a cruciate ligament substitute may be integrated into the femur. The tibial component (60) further includes a center portion (62) defining an aperture (63) through which the ligament substitute maybe threaded through the tibia and integrated therein, or anchored upon its surface. Also disclosed is a method used to replace the total knee joint in a mammal with the improved prosthetic knee implant (40) of the present invention.
