    摘要: An orthopedic prosthesis (10a) for implantation into a bone of a patient includes a porous metal shell (12a) adapted to be affixed within the bone. The porous metal shell includes an outer surface (16a) adapted to receive bone ingrowth and an inner surface (14a) adapted to engage a liner. The porous metal shell is porous from the outer surface to the inner surface. A non-porous member may be affixed to the porous metal shell. The non-porous member may include a piercing member (28) extending from the outer surface, the piercing member adapted to penetrate the bone in an implanted position. The non-porous member may include spikes (28) or fins. In one example, the piercing member may define a reduced material cross section at an interface with the outer surface of the porous metal shell. The piercing member may be adapted to be broken at the reduced material cross section and removed from the porous metal shell.
