A surgical fixation assembly includes a shank having an outer surface. The outer surface of the shank includes a threaded portion. The surgical fixation assembly includes a first cupped washer supported on the shank, a sleeve, and a nut threadably engaged with the threaded portion of the shank. The nut is positioned to slide the sleeve axially along the shank to deform the first cupped washer and enable the first cupped washer to penetrate osseous tissue for securing the shank to osseous tissue.
