ABSTRACT:
An anchoring element for supporting a joint mechanism of a reconstructed joint is discussed. The anchoring element includes an at least partially hollow guide and centering sleeve for supporting the joint mechanism. The anchoring element is compatible with bone and marrow tissue and has a surface which can be at least partially osseo-integrated with the tissue to achieve permanent anchorage in the bone and marrow tissue. The anchoring element can be used to reconstruct an ankle joint or a hip joint.
