ABSTRACT:
Means for affixing the scapular component of a shoulder prosthesis to the bony structure of the shoulder includes a T-shaped stem extending from a flange on the device. The stem has a substantially narrow or thin web having one side longer than the other, which disposes the base at an acute angle relative to the flange, such as approximately 15.degree.. The elongated base and the web are inserted through the bony structure with the flange in contact with outer regions. The base and web are cemented within the bone to securely anchor the prosthesis to the bone between them and the flange.
