ABSTRACT:
The reinforcement for the proximal region of a bone cement bed for a femoral head prosthesis includes a grid of crossing members at least some of which are wavy. The wavy members have a high wavy shape lengthwise and spring in as the gap between a bone cavity and a prosthesis stem narrows. The prosthesis is fixed by averaging out of the restoring forces and the gap size mechanically until the bone cement has cured.
