English term or phrase: material-fit
These projections are (front view) L-shaped, preferably made of the same material as the core layer of the joint spacers and are connected with this material-fit. The projections or sections of the projections may alternatively also have a fine fibrillary or other suitable structure that enables suturing the projections to the meniscal horns. The projections are designed specially to run only inside and not beyond the anterior or posterior end of the tibial plateau.

encaixe de material
Explanation:
fit (noun) = something of the right size or shape

Pelo contexto, entendi que seria um pedaço de material do tamanho certo para a aplicação. Minha sugestão inicial seria traduzir como "encaixe", mas talvez alguém apareça com uma tradução melhor.

Se tiver mais alguma ocorrência de "material-fit" no texto e puder postar, seria legal, Teresa. Assim daria para ter mais certeza se a ideia é essa mesmo.

Boa sorte!

Depois da referência da Teresa, me parece interessante dar outra sugestão. Talvez "encaixe por material" (material fit), "encaixe por formato" (form fit) e encaixe por fricção (friction fit).
