Abstract
A tamp system includes a plurality of tamps, each of which includes an elongated body having a stepped outer surface. The body has a diameter and a longitudinal axis, wherein the diameter decreases from a proximal end to a distal end thereof. The stepped outer surface includes a plurality of steps each having a distal-facing surface and a side-facing surface. Each tamp is adapted for compacting morsellized bone matter in a canal in a bone. The compacted bone matter can be used to resize the canal for a new prosthesis in a prosthesis revision surgery.
