ABSTRACT:
A femoral component for a knee joint prosthesis having a modular cam which may be connected intraoperatively to provide posterior tibial subluxation resistance when the posterior cruciate ligament is sacrificed. The cam includes protrusions which engage with notches on the stem base to prevent rotation of the cam during use. A stem extension is connected to the stem base for clamping engagement of the cam body therebetween. A transverse opening may be formed in the stem base for providing access to the stem extension threads. The threads may then be malformed to prevent rotation of the stem extension relative to the extension.
