Abstract
A variable angle blade augment including an augment section and a separate plate or blade segment. According to some embodiments, a first connector of the blade segment and a socket capture mechanism of the augment section provide a ball and socket type joint. Additionally, the socket capture mechanism may be structured to allow for linear displacement of the first connector relative to at least one axis of the socket capture mechanism. By allowing for at least pivotal and linear relative displacement of the augment section and the blade segment, the variable angle blade augment may improve the ability to optimally position a buttress augment against a prosthetic acetabular shell. Moreover, the variable angle blade augment may provide the ability to utilize components of an implantable medical device after stabilizing the components to a bone structure of a patient.
