Check box position and box depth and fi na-
lize with the box rasp (rasps for size 2 and
for sizes 4–10).
Important
Introduce the box rasp only in the longitudinal
direction; do not jam or tilt it because this
can cause breakage of the femoral condyle.
Controlling the femoral resections and
anchorage
The femoral trial is screwed with the trial stem
(corresponding to the last reamer) and in-
serted with the impactor.
Note
When using distal and/or posterior femoral
augmentation blocks, corresponding femoral
trial blocks (5 mm, 10 mm or 15 mm) are
available, which are fixed laterally on the
femoral trial.
