ABSTRACT:
An articulated joint prosthesis, and particularly a knee joint, in which the articulation between two bone penetrating elements is provided with elastic means permitting relative movements between the two said elements in senses other than that of the normal articulation, for instance, slight separations or inclinations in the plane of the pivot axis. A small play may also be incorporated in the articulation so as to permit relative torsion between the two bone penetrating elements.
