A prosthesis of the type for use between a structure having a substantially hemispherical or spherical cap form and an upper end of an elongate bone having an inner channel is described, the prosthesis comprising: prosthetic head (10) including a substantially hemispherical or spherical cap form (11) adapted to co-operate with the hemispherical or spherical cap structure, the prosthetic head (10) including a plurality of attachment devices (14) for attaching sutures; and a prosthetic stem (20) for inserting in the channel and being connectable to the prosthetic head (10), the prosthetic head and stem (10, 20) being adapted so that the head (10) is fixable with respect to the hemispherical or spherical cap structure independently of the fixation of the stem (20) within the channel. A kit for the assembly of the prosthesis is described including an ancillary member whereby at least one of prosthetic head and ancillary member include calibration markings. A surgical method is described for use of the prosthesis in the restoration of a fractured human humerus. <IMAGE> |
