For example, when tibial pilot cutter 800 is being impacted through anchor guide 500 to form the pilot channel, depth stop 803 will engage an anterior side 1108 of tibial pilot cutter block 1100 instead of anterior side 508 of anchor guide 500, thereby shortening the pilot channel by a thickness 1110 of tibial pilot cutter block 1100.
- a pilot cutter for a larger tibial tray and/or anchor may be used for a smaller tibial tray and/or anchor (e.g., a size 3, 4, 3/4, etc.; a length of 30 mm; and/or the like).
- tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may be associated with a size, such as pilot channel size for a tibial tray size and/or an anchor size. Tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may enforce cutting of a pilot channel of a specific smaller size when using a larger pilot cutter size.
- pilot cutter 800 may be a Pilot Cutter 5/6 long, for instance, for a size 5/6 tibial tray and/or size 5/6 anchor for an EngageTM system (e.g., a pilot channel length of about 44 mm), and tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may be for a size 4 tibial tray and/or size 3/4 anchor for an EngageTM system (e.g., a pilot channel length of about 36 mm).
- tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may be associated with a specific size conversion or reduction, for instance, tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may be configured as a ’’size
- tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may allow a surgeon to precisely and efficiently use a single cutter (e.g., a long cutter for a larger or maximum size) to be used for multiple different sizes. For instance, a size
- pilot cutter may be used for a size 5 anchor, a size 4 anchor, and a size 3 anchor via employment of the appropnate tibial pilot cutter block 1100.
- Tibial pilot cutter block 1100 may be used with different size anchor guides.

Abstract
L'invention concerne des techniques et des instruments chirurgicaux destinés à une intervention d'arthroplastie du genou, comprenant une intervention d'implant tibial reposant sur un ancrage. Par exemple, un rail de guidage (200) peut être installé dans un canal de composant (125) d'une plaque de base tibiale (108) pour empêcher qu'un matériau ne pénètre le canal et/ou pour fournir un trajet de support à un guide d'ancrage à accoupler à la plaque de base. Un bloc de coupe pilote (1100) peut être accouplé à un guide d'ancrage (500) pour faciliter l'utilisation efficace de dispositifs de coupe d'avant-trous plus longs (800) pour des avant-trous d'ancrage plus petits. Un dispositif de coupe de retrait d'ancrage (1200) peut comprendre une extrémité de coupe façonnée pour correspondre à des dimensions horizontales et verticales d'un canal de fixation d'ancrage. Une poignée de bloc de coupe (1700) peut être conçue pour être accouplée à un bloc de coupe fémoral (1820) de façon à faciliter une manipulation manuelle du bloc de coupe. Une technique peut consister à couper un canal d'ancrage pour permettre un déplacement réglable de l'ancrage, par exemple, dans une direction supérieure-inférieure.
