Petit texte concernant un appareil auditif. Quelqu'un sait-il à quoi correspond ce mot, abutment ?

Merci !

They said that they could make me hear better by giving me something called a BAHA and that I would soon be going to get it.
Then they gave me the three parts of the BAHA to look at.
They are called the implant…abutment….and sound processor and together they are a BAHA.
