Zusammenfassung:	A method for treating a bone includes cutting away a portion of the bone, including cutting non-planar features into the bone for engagement by implant components. The method further includes fitting the multiple implant components to the bone, with at least some of the multiple implant components engaging the non-planar features cut into the bone. The implant components interlock such that later added implant components secure earlier added implant components in place on the bone.
