ABSTRACT:
A slide prosthesis for the knee joint is provided to be secured free of cement, the tibia members, the femur members and the surface replacement for the knee cap having anchoring pins which are provided with a saw tooth-like or bone screw-shaped profile. The tibia and knee cap members are preferably made of carbon fibre-reinforced plastics material and the femur members of aluminium oxide ceramic material. In order to assist growth of the bone to the prosthesis members, the members are coated at the corresponding points with bio-active particles, such as apatite-containing glasses, apatite particles or dealbumined bone material.
