Abstract
A medical implant includes a body and a porous structure attached to the body. A boss integral with the body extends outwardly from a surface of the body. The porous structure has a surface that cooperates with the boss of the body to prevent pullout of the body from the porous structure. In fabricating the medical implant, the body and the porous structure are formed separately and subsequently secured together.
