THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATION PARTICULARLY DESCRIBES THE SUBJECT MATTER AND THE MANNER IN WHICH IT IS TO BE PERFORMED.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] The present subject matter relates generally to orthopedic prostheses, and more specifically, to a revision femur prosthesis with progressive internal-external angle change at different flexion angles.
BACKGROUND
[002] Advances in surgical technique and implant technology have improved the ten-year survival after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). Despite this, the number of revision procedures has been increasing in recent years, a trend which is predicted to continue. Revision THA is a technically demanding procedure often complicated by a loss of host bone stock which may be compounded by the need to remove primary implants. Both cemented and uncemented implant designs are commonly used in the United Kingdom for primary and revision THA and much controversy still exists as to the ideal method of stem fixation. Revision THA is most often indicated for instability, aseptic loosening, osteolysis, infection, periprosthetic fracture, component malposition, and catastrophic implant failure. Understanding the etiology of THA failure is essential for guiding clinical decision making. Femoral component revision presents a complex challenge to the arthroplasty surgeon because of modern implant design as well as bone loss in the proximal femur. Thorough patient evaluation, defect classification, and well-executed surgical reconstruction based on comprehensive preoperative planning may determine the postoperative results. Knowledge of various reconstructive options and the indications for each is necessary to achieve a successful outcome.
[003] Conventional application such at one illustrated in U.S. Patent no. 5,147,405 disclosed a femur prosthesis including a tibial component. The patent describes a significant emphasis on controlling the 'rollback' - the movement of contact points in the posterior direction during knee flexion. While this is controlled to a certain degree, the distance of rollback is stated to be about 6mm, which could still lead to potential issues or complications, especially when compared to the initial invention

where no such rollback is mentioned. The design in U.S. Patent No. 5,147,405 stipulates that no rollback occurs upon flexion of the femoral and tibial components from about 45° to the flexed position. This limits the natural movement or create an unnatural sensation during the middle-to-late stages of flexion. On the contrary, the initial invention might provide a more continuous or smooth motion during the entire range of movement, given the absence of such limitations. The design, as described in U.S. Patent No. 5,147,405, has a multifaceted mechanism, including a posterior cam surface, stabilizing post with multiple sections, and an anchoring rod. This could potentially make the implantation procedure more intricate and might lead to a longer surgical time and recovery period. While the patent mentions feature to reduce the likelihood of dislocation between the femoral and tibial components, the very fact that these features are emphasized suggests a higher inherent risk. The earlier described invention might have a more robust or stable design that inherently reduces the risk of such dislocations. The patent suggests that controlling the rollback is crucial to prevent the tibial tray from flexing or rocking, which might lead to its loosening. However, if there are any malfunctions or unexpected movements, the dependency on the tray's stability might lead to complications. Given the addition of stabilizing posts, anchoring rods, and cam surfaces, the prosthesis as per U.S. Patent No. 5,147,405 might be bulkier than the previously described invention. This could potentially result in a thicker profile that might not be suitable for all patients or might require more extensive bone resection during surgery. With multiple points of articulation and engagement (like the engaging means of the posterior cam surface between certain flexion angles), there might be increased wear and tear over time, reducing the longevity of the implant.
[004] Another conventional application illustrated in US 2011/125275 A1 a prosthetic joint that includes a first implant component for attachment to a first bone and a second implant component for attachment to a second bone, is disclosed. The first implant component has a condylar portion that includes first and second condylar bearing surfaces and similarly, the second implant component has bearing surfaces that receive and are complementary to the first and second condylar

bearing surfaces. Each of the first and second condylar bearing surfaces and each of the bearing surfaces of the second implant component has a cross-section in a coronal plane that exhibits two different radii, and a contact point is established between the first and second condylar bearing surfaces and the bearing surfaces of the second implant component. The bearing surfaces of the respective implant components are configured such that varus and valgus rotation of the first implant component relative to the second implant component causes the contact point to move outwardly.

Although a revision femur prosthesis, similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of embodiments of the present disclosure, the exemplary a revision femur prosthesis is now described.
[0023] Various modifications to the embodiment will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art and the generic principles herein may be applied to other embodiments. The present disclosure is not intended to be limited to the embodiments illustrated but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features described herein.
[0024] As discussed above, primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) has witnessed a notable improvement in ten-year survival rates due to advancements in surgical techniques and implant technology. However, the number of revision procedures is rising. Femoral component revision presents a complex challenge due to modern implant design and bone loss in the proximal femur. Various femur prostheses have been designed, as exemplified in U.S. Patent no. 5,147,405 and US 2011/125275 A1. However, there remains a need for a more advanced revision femur prosthesis that addresses the specific technical challenges associated with femoral component revision.
[0025] In one embodiment Revision femur-insert progressive angle for revision femur prosthesis, is revision femur prosthesis. Revision femoral component is fabricated from CoCrMo Alloy (Cobalt-Chromium-Molybdenum). Tibial insert is

fabricated from Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) material. The articulating surface interfaces with the Tibial Insert to facilitate flexion-extension and internal-external rotational movement. Femur design has both Left and Right configurations with eight different sizes. Femoral components have narrow flange at anterior side to avoid notching with the bone, a complication that could lead to peri-prosthetic fractures. The distal and posterior thicknesses of the femoral component facilitate maintaining adequate joint line, ensuring that the knee's movements post-operation mirror its natural motion as closely as possible. Femoral component having deeper patella groove. It has provision for distal and posterior augment attachment. In revision femoral component 3d curved profile is added for box to facilitate progressive internal-external rotation. Different curve profiles are added in femoral component to get max 5.5° internal-external rotation. Tibial insert are available in eight different sizes with different thicknesses. Tibial inserts have 7° posterior slop on articulating surface. The slope is key for natural biomechanics, ensuring that the knee's movements post-operation mirror its natural motion as closely as possible. Also, the tibial insert has a chamfer at anterior and posterior side. The chamfer at anterior side provides easy patella movement and the chamfer at posterior side provides for easy ligaments movement. Femoral component slide, roll, rotate through tibial insert with different angles with different contact point that is medio-lateral, anterior-posterior movement. There is different contact point at medio-lateral, anterior-posterior movement.
[0026] In one embodiment, the present subject matter advantage of progressive internal-external (I-E) angle change based on different flexion angles and includes 3d curve profile in its femoral box (also referred to as box), allowing for a progressive increase in internal-external rotation as the flexion angle changes. Specifically, the rotation can go from up to 1° at 0° flexion 5.5° to 6° at 90° flexion. This not only ensure post-operative patient comfort but also play a pivotal role in enhancing the longevity of the implant, reducing the need for subsequent revisions. Above discussed advantages and other advantages will be better evident in the subsequent section.

[0027] In one embodiment Progressive internal-external (I-E) angle change at different flexion angle position related to a revision femur prosthesis, is provided. Further, curved profiles are added in femoral box component. Due to curved profile in femoral box internal-external rotation progressively goes on increasing. At 0° there is slight clearances in femur and insert so there is up-to 1° I-E rotation will occur. When femoral component roll on tibial insert with different flexion angle there is I-E rotation also occur and for 90° flexion angle internal-external angle goes up to 5.5° to 6°. Tibial post width is increased at medio-lateral and anterior-posterior direction to maintain the I-E rotation 0.4° up-to 5.5°. Draft 4° is added on tibial post from bottom surface.
