A tripartite set for securing a prosthesis to a bone, namely, a proximal part (4) connected to the prosthesis and adapted to be received in a complementarily processed part of a marrow cavity; a distal part or tip (8) to be fixed in said marrow cavity in an advanced position; and a tie member (6) connecting said two parts, one end of said tie member extending at said tip (8) and forming a wedge bolt or like member which expands upon the exercise of tensile force therewith, and said tie member (6) being an at least axially resilient element with flat spring characteristics at least in the body temperature range. |
