A system and method for trialing a modular hip replacement system permits
evaluation and replication of the anatomic anteversion rotational angle
of the femur. In one embodiment, a femoral hip implant kit includes at
least one distal implant and a plurality of femoral heads, each of the
plurality of femoral heads having a diameter different from the diameter
of the other of the plurality of femoral heads. The kit includes a
proximal trial housing with a bore within the housing, the bore
configured to receive a portion of the distal implant, a collet located
within the bore, the collet including an outer wall portion extending
between a top surface portion and a bottom surface portion, a collapsing
member for engaging the portion of the distal implant and for forcing the
top surface portion of the collet toward the bottom surface portion of
the collet along a first axis.
