ABSTRACT:
A preferred embodiment of an extractor employs a pair of arms which laterally move toward each other, thereby applying compressive forces against a first prosthetic component toward a longitudinal centerline. These compressive forces, in combination with longitudinal movement of the arms in relation to a collar of the extractor, serves to easily extract the liner from the shell.
