Abstract

In some embodiments, a surgical method includes creating an incision in a patient, exposing a multi-component prosthesis implanted in a patient, disassembling at least one component of the multi-component prosthesis, and coupling a first revision implant component to a first component of the multi-component prosthesis. The revision implant component has a body including at least one of a projection or an opening that is complementary to a feature of the first component of the multi-component prosthesis for coupling the revision implant component to the first component of the multi-component prosthesis.
