Abstract
A patella clamp includes a lockable swivel that is able to freely tilt from 1° to 30° in any direction and then be locked in that orientation. This ability to freely swivel will allow a user to align a resected surface of a patella parallel to the other end of the patella clamp to make the operative surfaces of the implant and the patella substantially parallel to each other.
