A method for implantation of non-spherical, asymmetric implants is provided that includes devising a pre-surgical plan with pre-operative planning software operating on a computer to define at least one of shape, orientation, type, size, geometry, or placement of the non-spherical, asymmetric implant in an operative bone of a subject. A computer assisted surgical device is used to place the non-spherical, asymmetric implant. The implant is positioned within the bone by the computer assisted surgical device in accordance with pre-surgical plan. A non-spherical, asymmetric implant for insertion in a bone formed of separate stem, neck, and head portions and suitable for implantation by the method is also disclosed. |
