Abstract

See full text

An implant includes a body having a cylindrical portion extending from a first end to a second end, a first nub extending from the first end, and a second nub extending from the second end. The body includes an inner layer, a middle layer, and an outer layer. The inner layer has a first length extending from a tip of the first nub to a tip of the second nub, and has a first central axis collinear with a central longitudinal axis of the implant. The outer layer has a second length extending from the first end to the second end, has a second central axis collinear with the central longitudinal axis, and provides an outer surface of the implant. The middle layer comprises a porous material disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer. The inner layer and at least one portion of the middle layer provide the two nubs.
