An implantation system for positioning and aligning an elongate medical device in three-dimensional space. The system may include: a frame member; and first, second, and third legs each having an adjustable length. Each of the first, second, and third legs includes: a first end having a socket segment, wherein the socket segments of each of the first, second, and third legs together define a socket; and a second end connected to the frame member. A spherical member is adapted to be received within the socket such that the spherical member may rotate about a center of rotation defined by the socket, the spherical member having an inner surface defining a bore passing through the spherical member.
