ABSTRACT:
A prosthetic implant for replacing an element of a natural joint includes an elongate core for securing the implant within natural bone at an implant site adjacent the natural joint, the implant including a allograft affixed to the core for interposition between the core and the natural bone at the implant site. A kit of component parts enables a surgeon to select allograft component parts for assembly with the core, interoperatively, for accommodating conditions encountered at the implant site.
