ABSTRACT:
A two-element prosthesis is provided with a resilient connector that permits limited rotation of one element relative the other about the three axes of the two elements as defined by the junction of the two elements. The resilient connector further absorbs a limited amount of compressive shock transmitted from one element to the second element. The resilient member includes a sensing system that indicates a compressive force at the resilient member in excess of a predetermined amount.
