A sterile implantable device intended to be used as an attachment for a resurfacing humeral head prosthesis joint to treat a disease-damaged (e.g., arthritic) shoulder joint. It consists of a metallic peg [e.g., titanium (Ti), cobalt-chrome (Co-Cr), stainless steel] inserted into the humeral head so that the prosthesis on the humeral articulating surface can be attached.
