Abstract
Description


FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a femoral prosthesis showing our new design;



FIG. 2 is a front elevation view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 3 is a rear elevation view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 4 is a left-side elevation view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 5 is a right-side elevation view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 7 is a bottom plan view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1;



FIG. 8 is a front perspective view of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1 mounted on a femur; and,



FIG. 9 is a rear perspective of the femoral prosthesis shown in FIG. 1 mounted on a femur.


The portions shown in broken lines do not form part of the claimed design.
