A prosthesis element for a thigh prosthesis has a shaft which can be inserted into the upper end of a femur. The upper end of the shaft carries an inclined transverse support plate and a support post onto which a condyle can be fitted. The shaft has an upper proximal shaft section and a lower distal shaft section. These two shaft sections are tilted relative to one another to an acute angle. The shaft sections have substantially rectangular cross section and taper to the distal end of the shaft. One of the shaft sections comprises a lower section, which is twisted about the longitudinal axis of this shaft section.
