Calcar Resection

If utilizing the calcar proximal body implant, determine
the level of deficiency in the proximal femur, align the
resection guide to the broach and mark the desired
resection with a saw (Figure 12). Remove the broach
and stem trial with the broach handle and complete
the calcar resection.
Insert either the large or small platform trial into the
slot corresponding with the calcar resection level
(Figure 13).

Note: The large platform should be utilized for a
+0 resection level and the small platform should be
utilized for the +10 or +20 resection levels.
Reattach the broach handle to the assembled trial and
insert the trial into the femur to verify it seats to the
desired level.
