1. A surgical patient support system, comprising
a tower base including a pair of spaced apart support towers,
a first support top having a head end and a foot end, the first support top being configured to support a patient,
a pair of support brackets, each support bracket of the pair of support brackets being configured for connection to a respective one of the support towers, and
a second support top including a frame extending between head and foot ends, wherein each of the pair of support brackets are configured to couple with a respective one of the head and foot ends of each of the first support top and the second support top to support the first and second support tops between the support towers, wherein the second support top is arranged substantially perpendicular to the first support top,
wherein the second support top comprises a patient support top including the frame and a pad, wherein the pad is unitary and includes a torso section having a first height above the frame and a leg section having a second height above the frame, the second height being greater than the first height such that the leg section is thicker than the torso section, wherein the torso section and the leg section are interconnected such that an upper surface of the pad on which a patient lies has a stepped configuration with a transition surface between the torso section and the leg section being vertical when an undersurface of the pad extending between terminal ends of the pad beneath both the torso and leg sections forms a horizontal flat plane, and
a repositionable axilla support device for movement along an entirety of the torso section but without being adjustable in height above the torso section when the undersurface of the pad forms the flat horizontal plane, wherein the transition surface is located in a middle region of the pad such that a space is defined above the torso section from the transition surface to the terminal end at the head end of the pad to accommodate the movement of the repositionable axilla support device.
