Abstract
A femoral hip prosthesis (10) comprises a main member (12), a modular member (14) and a system for connecting the two. The main member (12) has a stem portion (16) and a body portion (18) which are adapted for insertion into the intramedullary canal. The body (18) portion has lateral, posterior, and anterior sides adapted to mate with the bone and has a medial side configured and dimensioned to receive the modular member (14). The modular member (14) is chosen from a plurality of such members of various shapes and sizes and is adapted to fit accurately into the intramedullary canal, especially after the intramedullary canal has been deformed through the prior implantation of a prosthetic hip device.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a hip prosthesis and more particularly to a modular femoral component for a hip prosthesis designed to adapt for an accurate fit in the intramedullary canal, particularly in revision surgery.
The prior art contains many hip prostheses which are constructed to replace the upper portion of the femur. The conventional prosthesis is an unitary structure which is designed to be inserted into the intramedullary canal. To function properly, the prosthetic device must fit snugly into the intramedullary canal. If the fit is loose then the prosthesis will shift positions in relation to the femur causing pain to the patient, interfering with the transmission of power to the leg, and making the hip more vulnerable to re-injury. Because of these problems much of the art attempts to improve the fit of the prosthetic device in the intramedullary canal.
The use of a prosthesis which is constructed of discrete parts is known in the art. Such a prosthesis is shown in European Patent Application No. 257,359 whichdiscloses a discrete stem, body, neck and capitulum. This design is intended to allow the doctor to assemble a prosthesis at the time of implantation.
The use of various inserts in an attempt to obtain a more accurate fit in the intramedullary canal is known in the art. One prosthesis with an insert design is shown in European Patent Application No. 273,871 which discloses a U-shaped insert that wraps around the prosthesis. This design is intended to allow a prosthesis to be used with either the left or right femur depending on the geometry of the U-shaped insert.
Another prosthesis with an insert design is shown in French Patent No.

Because of these problems much of the art attempts to improve the fit of the prosthetic device in the intramedullary canal.
The use of a prosthesis which is constructed of discrete parts is known in the art.

This design is intended to allow the doctor to assemble a prosthesis at the time of implantation.

One prosthesis with an insert design is shown in European Patent Application No. 273,871 which discloses a U-shaped insert that wraps around the prosthesis.

One problem in the use of prosthetic hip devices is that, following the implantation of the prosthetic device, the intramedullary canal can flair or deform due to osteolysis. The flàred or deformed intramedullary canal no longer accurately mates with the prosthetic device and revision surgery is required to repiace the AM~ ED SHE~T

There exists, therefore, a need in the art for an improved hip prosthesis which permits a surgeon to modify, during revision surgery, the geometry of the medial5 portion of the prosthetic device to create a more accurate fit with the deformed or flared intramedullary canal.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide means through which the geometry of the medial portion of a hip prosthesis can be easily altered to more accurately fit into an intramedullary canal which has been deformed or flared.
This object is accomplished by having a modular member located in the medial portion of the prosthetic device which can be replaced by choosing an appropriately sized and 15 adapted modular member. Such modularity allows the revision surgery physician to easily customize the prosthesis to regain an accurate fit in the deformed or flared intramedullary canal. A further advantage of the current invention is that it eliminates the burdensome inventory requirements necessitated by using integral prosthetic devices. This is because the prosthetic members are adapted to receive more than20 one modular medial member.
In accordance with the present invention, a femoral hip prosthesis comprises a first or main member which possesses a stem portion and a body portion adapted for insertion into the intramedullary canal. The body portion has lateral, posterior, and anterior sides which are adapted to mate with the bone and has a medial side 25 configured and dimensioned for receiving another member. Additionally, the invention comprises a second or modular member. The modular member may be chosen from a plurality of such members having anterior, posterior, and medial sides which are adapted for an accurate fit in the intramedullary canal, and a lateral side configured and dimensioned complimentarily to the medial side of the body portion. The 30 invention also comprises a means for connecting the medial side of the body portion with the lateral side of the modular member.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of one embodiment of a femoral hip prosthesis according to the present invention, illustrating different modular members;
FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of an altemative embodiment of a femoral hip prosthesis according to the present invention, also illustrating different modular members, and FIGS. 3 - 9 are exploded perspective views of the body portion and modular member of different alternative embodiments of femoral hip prostheses according to the present invention, illustrating alternative means for connecting the main and modular members.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Referring to FIG. 1, femoral hip prosthesis 10 generally includes main member 12 and modular member 14. Prosthesis 10 is shown in FIG. 1 with a selection of differently shaped modular members 14, such as may be provided with a kit according 30 to the present invention. Main member 12 includes stem portion 16, body portion 18, neck portion 22 and capitulum 24. On the proximal medial face of body portion 18, recessed area 20 is shaped to receive modular member 14. The Ct~

-- - -- . . . -- ----remaining surfaces of body portion 18 are conventional and may include porous coating 25 or other surface treatment, such as hydroxylapatite, to encourage bone ingrowth .
Modular member 14 also has anterior, posterior and medial faces which may 5 be covered with an appropriate bone ingrowth surface or material. Member 14 also includes a distally facing support surface 14a. However, the lateral and lower faces of the modular member are configured and dimensioned to securely mate with recessedarea 20 on main member 12. Recessed area 20 includes a medial surface 20a and a proximally facing support surface 20b designed to engage and support surface 14a of 10 member 14. In order to provide the necessary improved fit in the intramedullary canal, different sizes and shapes of modular members are provided, each of which is configured and dimensioned to securely mate with the same main member. For example, FIG.1 shows three alternative modular members with progressively increasing flared medial faces 27A, B and C, respectively. A kit containing a variety of 15 such flared modular members is well suited for addressing the problems frequently encountered with flared intra-medullary canals in revision surgery.
In order to secure together main member 12 and modular member 14, connection means 26 are provided. As shown in FIG.1, connection means 26 comprises hole 28 in main member 12, which receives extending element 30 mounted20 on modular member 14. Preferably, one or both of hole 28 and element 30 are tapered to create a secure interference fit. Such interference fits are well known in the art and can be easily specified by a person of ordinary skill.
One alternative embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2. Body portion 18 is again provided recessed area 20 for receiving modular member 14 on25 the medial face. However, in this embodiment, modular member 14 includes capitulum 24~ and neck portion 22~. Instead of being disposed on the lower face of the modular member, elements 30 (of which there are two in the illustrated embodiment) are disposed on the lateral face and are received in corresponding holes 28 of connection means 26 on the medial face of member 12. Again, an interference fit 30 may be provided. Otherwise, the embodiment of FIG. 2 is substantially the same as the embodiment of FIG.1. Although not specifically illustrated, bone ingrowth surfaces can be provided as described above.

-- - -- . . . -- ----remaining surfaces of body portion 18 are conventional and may include porous coating 25 or other surface treatment, such as hydroxylapatite, to encourage bone ingrowth .
Modular member 14 also has anterior, posterior and medial faces which may 5 be covered with an appropriate bone ingrowth surface or material. Member 14 also includes a distally facing support surface 14a. However, the lateral and lower faces of the modular member are configured and dimensioned to securely mate with recessedarea 20 on main member 12. Recessed area 20 includes a medial surface 20a and a proximally facing support surface 20b designed to engage and support surface 14a of 10 member 14. In order to provide the necessary improved fit in the intramedullary canal, different sizes and shapes of modular members are provided, each of which is configured and dimensioned to securely mate with the same main member. For example, FIG.1 shows three alternative modular members with progressively increasing flared medial faces 27A, B and C, respectively. A kit containing a variety of 15 such flared modular members is well suited for addressing the problems frequently encountered with flared intra-medullary canals in revision surgery.
In order to secure together main member 12 and modular member 14, connection means 26 are provided. As shown in FIG.1, connection means 26 comprises hole 28 in main member 12, which receives extending element 30 mounted20 on modular member 14. Preferably, one or both of hole 28 and element 30 are tapered to create a secure interference fit. Such interference fits are well known in the art and can be easily specified by a person of ordinary skill.
