#$%^&*AU2013245552A120131107.pdf#####ABSTRACT The present invention relates generally to orthopedic prosthetic devices and, in particular, to distal femoral knee prostheses. The present invention provides a set of distal femoral prostheses particularly adapted for female anatomy, each femoral prosthesis including a distal nonarticulating surface having an anterior end and a posterior end. The set of distal femoral prostheses includes a plurality of standard aspect ratio prostheses respectively having increasingly greater overall anterior/posterior dimensions defined between points located most anteriorly and most posteriorly on each prosthesis and have increasingly greater distal taper angles defined between a lateral line connecting the anterior end and the posterior end of the distal nonarticulating surface and a medial line connecting the anterior end and the posterior end of the distal nonarticulating surface on each prosthesis. The set of distal femoral prostheses wherein at least some of said prostheses having a said distal taper angle greater than or equal to approximately 21 .
