ABSTRACT:
The shaft portion of an artificial hip joint intended for cement-free anchoring in a femur which is generally rectangular in cross-section and is provided with outwardly projecting steps for direct transfer of axial forces between the shaft and the bone tissue, one half of the steps being transversely inclined with respect to the shaft axis with the other half of the steps inclined in the opposite direction by an equal amount to prevent rotation of the shaft as a result of the development of equal and opposite components of force.
