A device and method for joint replacement surgery, such as total hip
replacement surgery, including a bone cement plug which is adaptable to
any size bone canal, an insertion tool for deploying the plug in the
canal, and a cradle for storing the plug and insertion tool, The bone
cement plug comprises a body defined by a series of separable units, each
with a flange. The flanges decrease in diameter from the proximal end of
the body to the distal end of the body. For smaller canals that cannot
receive the large flanges, appropriate units of the plug may be removed,
thus eliminating the oversized flanges in favor of the more appropriately
sized flanges.
