A modular implant system for limb preservation comprises modular components which can be combined to perform proximal, distal, mid-shaft or total long bone replacement. Each replacement component is connected by a Morse taper engagement. The Morse taper engagement can be augmented by interlocking anti-rotation features between adjacent components. Certain components are configured to form part of a skeletal joint, while other components are configured for engagement within existing portions of the long bone. A number of segmental components operate as spacers for spanning the length of a removed section of bone. Certain segmental components are provided in several lengths, with one group of lengths increasing in 5 mm increments. Combinations of the segmental components can accommodate replacement lengths from 25 mm to 170 mm in 5 mm increments. <IMAGE>
