The invention relates to a modular hip implant comprising a base that is to be attached to a hipbone, and a socket for accommodating a hip joint prosthesis. The base is provided with fastening means for mounting the base on the hipbone as well as a concave receiving area for the socket. The socket has a convex outer form which is complementary to the receiving area such that the radii of curvature determining the concave receiving area and the convex outer form essentially correspond to each other. The socket can be fastened within the base. The inventive hip implant is characterized in that the base and/or the socket encompass/es means for adjusting the position of the socket relative to the base. The invention allows the inclination and anteversion to be adjusted by arranging the socket inside the base. |
