1. :

  • A set of distal femoral prostheses particularly adapted for female anatomy, each femoral prosthesis including a distal nonarticulating surface having an anterior end and a posterior end, comprising;

    a plurality of prostheses each having an overall anterior/posterior dimension defined between points located most anteriorly and most posteriorly on each prosthesis and a medial/lateral dimension defined between points located most medially and most laterally at anterior/posterior locations defined by the anterior end of the distal nonarticulating surface on each prosthesis;

    at least some of said prostheses having a said overall anterior/posterior dimension and a said medial/lateral dimension falling below a conceptual boundary defined by a line connecting a first point and a second point, said first point having an approximately 52.0 mm overall anterior/posterior dimension and an approximately 49.0 mm medial/lateral dimension, and said second point having an approximately 77.0 mm overall anterior/posterior dimension and an approximately 67.0 mm medial/lateral dimension;

    wherein said line is defined by the following equation;


    (medial/lateral dimension)=(0.72*overall anterior/posterior dimension)+11.56.
