ABSTRACT:
An anchoring shaft for a joint endoprosthesis includes a rectilinear core. The core is provided with a shape tapering towards a distal end and a series of sawtooth-shaped teeth. The teeth are formed by ribs which extend in a longitudinal direction of the shaft. The ribs have a rectangular cross-section and a uniform thickness along their length. The teeth are defined as a long tooth flank and with a short, steep tooth flank. The shaft is usable for many joint endoprosthesis, including hip joint prosthesis.
