[0019] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3The utility model discloses a femoral positioning component for a fixed platform unicompartmental knee replacement, comprising a base 5, wherein the upper and lower surfaces of the base 5 are planes, one side of the base 5 is perpendicular to the planes of the upper and lower surfaces, and the other side is a smooth arc surface;

[0020] The effect achieved thereby is that the side of one plane corresponds to the side plane of the tibial osteotomy, and the arcuate side can ensure the safety of the operation and avoid secondary damage to the operation site.

[0021] A connector 3 is provided on the base 5, and a marking plate 1 is provided on the connector 3. The width of the connector 3 is smaller than that of the marking plate 1, and the height of the connector 3 is 3 mm.

[0022] The effect achieved in this way is that the connector 3, which is smaller in width than the marking plate 1, will form a femoral posterior condyle osteotomy marking groove 4 with a height of 3 mm between the bottom edge of the marking plate 1 and the top of the base 5. The function of the femoral posterior condyle osteotomy marking groove 4 is to serve as a marking groove for the femoral posterior condyle osteotomy line, that is, after the base 5 penetrates into the tibial osteotomy platform, the connector 3 and the marking plate 1 fit the femur, and the osteotomy position of the femoral posterior condyle can be marked through the femoral posterior condyle osteotomy marking groove 4.

[0023] The marking plate 1 is centrally arranged on the center line between the two side edges of the base 5; a vertical through groove is provided in the center of the marking plate 1, which is the femoral longitudinal bone nail marking groove 2;

[0024] The effect achieved in this way is that the femoral longitudinal bone nail marking groove 2 is equivalent to being centrally arranged in the middle position of the base 5. The middle here refers to the middle part between the two side edges of the base 5. In this case, the base 5 is inserted into the tibial osteotomy platform, and the position of the femoral longitudinal bone nail marking groove 2 can be used as the center marking groove based on the osteotomy surface. By marking the lower part of the femur along the femoral longitudinal bone nail marking groove 2, the marking of the vertical center line of the femur can be realized; and the horizontal gap between the connector 3 and the marking plate 1, that is, the femoral posterior condyle osteotomy marking groove 4, can be used as the osteotomy reference of the femoral posterior condyle for marking.

[0025] Furthermore, the marking plate 1 is a curved plate.

[0026] Preferably, the marking plate 1 is a curved plate body arranged to fit the curvature of the femoral condyle.

[0031] A connector 3 is slidably provided in the slide groove, and the connector 3 is integrally connected to the marking plate 1 .

[0032] The effect achieved thereby is that the position and orientation of the marking plate 1 can be flexibly adjusted so that a single device can be applied to both the left and right knee joints.

[0033] In Example 4, the femoral positioning component is provided with various sizes and specifications.

[0034] Preferably, the femoral positioning member is provided with at least three sizes, including size 1:

[0035] The thickness of the base 5 is 9 mm, the length of its flat side is 45 mm, and the width between the two sides is 22.5 mm;

[0036] Specification 2:

[0037] The thickness of the base 5 is 9 mm, the length of its flat side is 50 mm, and the width between the two sides is 25 mm;

[0038] Specification 3:

[0039] The base 5 has a thickness of 9 mm, a length of a flat side thereof of 55 mm, and a width between the two sides thereof of 27.5 mm.

[0040] Furthermore, a pushing hole 6 is provided on the curved side of the base 5 .

[0041] The effect achieved thereby is that the surgical instrument is coordinated with the pushing hole 6 to control the device to enter the osteotomy platform of the tibia.
