Abstract
A femoral hip prosthesis comprises a main member, a modular member and a means for connecting the two. The main member has a stem portion and a body portion which are adapted for insertion into the intramedullary canal. The body portion has lateral, posterior, and anterior sides adapted to mate with the bone and has a medial side configured and dimensioned to receive a modular member. The modular member is chosen from a plurality of such members of various shapes and sizes and is adapted to fit accurately into the intramedullary canal, especially after the intramedullary canal has been deformed through the prior implantation of a prosthetic hip device.
