Abstract
An orthopaedic prosthetic component comprises a fixation peg including a porous three-dimensional structure configured to permit bone in-growth. The porous three-dimensional structure has an outer surface boundary. The fixation peg includes a plate attached to the porous three-dimensional structure at the outer surface boundary. The plate includes a tapered body having an outer wall that faces away from the porous three-dimensional structure and is devoid of any openings.
