Abstract:
Methods and apparatus provide for modifying an intercondylar notch of a patient's femur, including cutting bone from the intercondylar notch using a hole saw having a hollow cylinder and a circular cutting edge, where the hollow cylinder of the hole saw defines a central longitudinal axis which is oriented with reference to the patient's femur such that the circular cutting edge of the hole saw removes a portion of material from the intercondylar notch of the patient's femur.
