ABSTRACT:
A humeral component of a shoulder prosthesis includes a stem configured for implantation within the humerus. A reverse articulating component is mounted to the stem by a connection mechanism. The reverse component defines a substantially concave bearing surface. The bearing surface is part of a bearing member that is engaged to a support member that is associated with the connection mechanism. A kit is provided which includes differently configured bearing members and support members to allow intraoperative selection and assembly of an optimum articulating component.
