Tibial baseplate for tibial component of a knee prosthesis, tibial component comprising the tibial baseplate and method for manufacturing the tibial baseplate

A system comprising:

• a tibial baseplate comprising
• a proximal facing surface delimited by a wall that defines a seat, and
• one or more teeth disposed about the wall;
• and
• a implant removal tool to remove the tibial baseplate, the implant removal tool comprising:
• an adapter configured to be hold in the seat abutting against the wall that surrounds the proximal facing surface, the adapter comprising
• adapter teeth configured to be inserted underneath the one or more teeth,
• a first adapter part, and
• a second adapter part,
• wherein the first adapter part supports a cutting guide of the implant removal tool that is integral with the first adapter part, and
• wherein the second adapter part is slidely coupling with the first adapter part allowing a relative translation between the first and the second adapter part in a sliding direction parallel to the proximal facing surface when the adapter is inserted into the seat.

A method comprising:

• removing a tibial baseplate with an implant removal tool,
• wherein the implant removal tool comprises an adapter comprising
• conjugated adapter teeth,
• a first adapter part, and
• a second adapter part,
• wherein the first adapter part supports a cutting guide of the implant removal tool that is integral with the first adapter part, and
• wherein the second adapter part is slidely coupling with the first adapter part allowing a relative translation between the first and the second adapter part.
