ABSTRACT:
A prosthetic device includes two or more members having alignable bores and smooth sliding surfaces intercepting the respective bore at an angle; a shaft extending through each bore holds the members in assembled relation with the sliding surfaces abutting one another; rotation of the shaft effects relative sliding motion between the members to vary the width dimension of the device.
