Abstract:
A prosthesis may include a stem, an adaptor and a head. The stem may include a longitudinal axis. The adaptor may include a first taper having a first taper axis of symmetry. The head may be rotatably supported by the adaptor and may include a semispherical articulating surface defined by a central axis of symmetry that is angled relative to the first taper axis of symmetry. The head may be coupled to the first taper and may be positionable relative to the stem through relative rotation between the head and the stem about the first taper axis of symmetry to adjust a radial offset of the head relative to the longitudinal axis of the stem. The head may be adapted to be received in a glenoid cavity of a scapula.
