Abstract: A trial neck for hip surgery and a method of attaching a trial neck to a femoral canal implement. The trial neck includes a body portion including a bore for receiving a proximal end of a femoral canal implement. The trial neck also includes an elongate neck extending from the body portion. The trial neck further includes a locking mechanism comprising a lever. The lever has a first end. The lever also has a second end. The lever further has an engagement surface. The second end of the lever is actuable to urge the engagement surface against the proximal end of the femoral canal implement to secure the proximal end of the femoral canal implement within the bore.
