A femoral prosthesis for use during a revision procedure includes a proximal body, a distal stem, a modular neck, and a head. In operation, a surgeon may stabilize the proximal body and the distal stem of the prosthesis in a patient's femoral canal that has moderate loss of metaphyseal cancellous bone (known as a Paprosky Type I femoral defect), extensive loss of metaphyseal cancellous bone (known as a Paprosky Type II femoral defect), or extensive metaphyseal deterioration and some diaphyseal deterioration (known as a Paprosky Type IIIA femoral defect). Without disturbing this arrangement, the surgeon may then position the head in a desired location by selecting a desired modular neck to obtain proper joint kinematics.
