A modular shoulder prosthesis including a head having a semi-spherical articulation surface bounded by an articular margin disposed in an articular plane generally normal to a head axis. The head further includes a backside disposed opposite the articulation surface and separated from the articulation surface by the articular margin. The prosthesis also includes a stem portion with a proximal end and a distal shaft for insertion into a medullary canal along a shaft axis. A coupling structure is adapted to removably attach the head to the stem through motion in the articular plane. |
