ABSTRACT:
An assembly tool (1) for assembly of a first component (2) of a prosthesis (4) to a second component (6) of the prosthesis (4) for use in joint arthroplasty is provided. The tool (1) includes a first member (8) operably associated with the first component (2). The first member (8) defines a first member longitudinal axis (10) of the first member (8). The tool also includes a second member (12) operably associated with the second component (6). The second member (12) defines a second member longitudinal axis (14) of the second member (12). The second member (12) is adapted to provide relative motion of the second member (12) with respect to the first member (8) when the second member (12) is rotated relative to the first member (8) about the second member longitudinal axis (14).
