Implant Assembly

The in-femur assembly tool can be utilized with any
proximal body and PPS coated distal stem construct
and was designed to allow for a bowed distal stem to
seat in the proper anatomic orientation, independent
of the proximal body implant.
Once the diaphysis and metaphysis has been prepared
and trialed, the in-femur assembly tool can be utilized
for the final insertion of the implant and to securely
lock the taper junction.

Thread the proximal fastener into the insertion hole
on the proximal body implant (Figure 45). Slide the
fastener into the gray proximal/distal inserter, pulling
back on the inserter collar and locking the fastener
into the inserter (Figure 46). Ensure that the anti-
rotation tabs are locked to the implant.
Place the distal fastener that matches the selected
proximal body height into the proximal/distal inserter
handle. Depress the button at the top of the proximal/
distal inserter handle and insert the assembly rod into
the inserter (Figure 47).
