An implant is provided as a bone replacement having an open-meshed, three-dimensional structure which at least partially covers its surface and which is constructed from particles which are connected to a base structure (1) of the implant. The particles have four to eight studs (3) extending radially outward from each other, at least three of which are connected directly to the base structure. At least the ends (7) of the studs (3) projecting out freely from the base structure (1) form undercuts (8) and have a surface which is outwardly rounded off.
