1. An orthopaedic surgical system, comprising:
a dome patella component configured to selectively engage a surgically prepared end of a patient's patella, the dome patella component including a convex, curved posterior surface,
an anatomic patella component configured to selectively engage a surgically prepared end of a patient's patella, the anatomic patella component includes a body, a medial peak extending posteriorly from the body, and a lateral peak extending posteriorly from the body, the medial peak and the lateral peak cooperating to define a posterior surface of the anatomic patella component,
a clamp comprising a retaining socket and a connector, the retaining socket and the connector being movable relative to one another,
a compression socket having a connector configured to be selectively secured to the connector of the clamp, the compression socket has a receptacle defined in an anterior surface thereof, and
a dome compressible base configured to be selectively received in the receptacle of the compression socket, the dome compressible base having an anterior surface shaped to conform to the posterior surface of the dome patella component.
