Abstract
In some embodiments, a revision implant includes a body extending between a first planar surface and a second planar surface and a head extending from the first planar surface of the body. The head is configured to couple the revision implant to at least one additional component of a multi-component prosthesis. At least one coupling mechanism is configured to couple the body to a first bone.

1-15. (canceled)
A surgical method, comprising:
- 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 revision implant component to a first component of the multi-component prosthesis, wherein the revision implant component comprises a body extending between a first planar surface and a second planar surface, a head extending from the first planar surface of the body and configured to couple the revision implant to at least one additional component of a multi-component prosthesis, and at least one coupling mechanism configured to couple the body to a bone.

A revision implant kit, comprising:
- a first revision implant comprising:
- a body extending between a first planar surface and a second planar surface;
- a head extending from the first planar surface of the body and configured to couple the revision implant to at least one additional component of a multi-component prosthesis;
- and
- at least one coupling mechanism configured to couple the body to a first bone;
- a second revision implant comprising an augment configured to fill a void formed in the first bone, the second revision implant configured to couple to the second planar surface of the body of the first revision implant;
- and
- a third revision implant comprising a body defining an articulation surface, wherein the third revision implant is configured to be coupled to a first planar surface of the first revision implant.
