ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a kit having a set of humeral components used in partial and total joint replacement surgeries. The set of humeral components has a plurality of stems having varying stem diameters and a set of humeral heads having hemispheric surfaces with varying radiuses. Each stem defines a platform having a hole which is a fixed distance from the proximal end of the stem. The distance of the hole from the proximal end of the stem is a function of the stem diameter.
