Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A trial neck for hip surgery and a method of attaching a trial neck to a bone canal preparation instrument. The trial neck includes a body portion having a bore for receiving a proximal end of the bone canal preparation instrument. The trial neck also includes an elongate neck part comprising a pair of arms extending from the body portion. The trial neck further includes a clamping mechanism comprising a live spring formed by the body portion and said pair of arms of the elongate neck part and an actuator, for moving the clamping mechanism between a clamping configuration and a non-clamping configuration. In the clamping configuration, the pair of arms of the elongate neck part are pinched together to cause an inner wall of the bore to urge against the bone canal preparation instrument to retain the proximal end of the bone canal preparation instrument within the bore.
