An orthopedic implant (10) includes a metal core (12) having a first end (18), a second end (20), a first elastic modulus, and a first porosity. A proximal body (14) is fused directly onto the metal core (12) between the first (18) and second ends (20). The proximal body has a second elastic modulus, which is less than the first elastic modulus, and a second porosity, which is greater than the first porosity. The porosity of the proximal body may vary throughout. |
