An orthopaedic implant includes an implant body having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The second surface includes a fixation feature. The fixation feature is configured to have a variable width for fastening the implant to a fixation bore formed in a bone. The implant body is D-shaped and has a straight edge and a curved edge. A length of the fixation feature is substantially parallel to the straight edge of the implant body. The fixation feature is configured to have a width that tapers along the length of the fixation feature.
