摘要：
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for preparing a distal end of a femur for receiving a knee prosthesis. A method can include installing a valgus guide onto an intermedullary rod, coupling a drill guide with said valgus guide, resting a boom tip of said drill guide on a high part of the femur, drilling a hole into a distal portion of a medial condyle using a first drill hole of said drill guide and drilling a hole into a distal portion of a lateral condyle using a second drill hole of said drill guide, and, subsequent to drilling the first and second drill holes, resecting the distal portion of the medial condyle of the femur and the distal portion of the lateral condyle of the femur. A system can include a valgus guide, a drill guide, and a resection tower, among other things.
