Zusammenfassung:A prosthesis may include a first component, a second component, and a coupling member. The first component may include a first body extending from a first end to a second end, which may define a first opening that extends inwardly toward the first end. The first opening may include a first portion having a first diameter and a second portion having a second diameter. The second component may include a second body extending from a first end to a second end. The second body may define a second opening that extends through the second body. The coupling member may be configured to couple the first component and the second component by compressing the first component and the second component. The coupling member may include a shaft portion and a head portion. The shaft portion may be sized and configured to be received in the first opening and the second opening.
