Patent ID: 7846212

Claim:
An orthopaedic implant kit comprising: a plurality of outer components, each outer component including an outer surface having an outer diameter, an inner surface having an inner diameter, and a thickness between the outer diameter and the inner diameter, wherein the outer surface defines a size of the outer component, each of at least two of the plurality of outer components having (i) a size that is different from the size of the other of the at least two of the plurality of outer components, and (ii) an inner diameter that varies as a function of the corresponding outer diameter to maintain a relatively consistent thickness of the at least two of the plurality of outer components; a plurality of intermediate components, each of at least two of the plurality of intermediate components having (i) an outer surface that is approximately the same size and shape as a respective one of the at least two of the plurality of outer components, and (ii) an inner surface defining a cavity that has the same dimensions as the cavity of the other of the at least two of the plurality of intermediate components; and a plurality of inner components, each of at least two of the plurality of inner components having (i) an outer surface portion that is dimensioned to be disposed within the cavity of each of the at least two of the plurality of intermediate components, and (ii) an inner surface having a size or a style that is different from the size or style of the inner surface of the other of the at least two of the plurality of inner components.
