The anchor element (4) is essentially rotationally symmetrical, at least partially hollow, and consists of a material which is compatible with the tissue of the bone. The anchor element has a surface which can at least partially knit together with the tissue in an ossifying manner in order to obtain a permanent anchoring in the longitudinal axis of the bone. The anchor element is inserted into the bone by dividing the bone in the vicinity of its articulation in order to expose the bone marrow cavity of the bone; a space is formed in the bone marrow cavity in the vicinity of the articulation; a guide bushing (11) is inserted into the space; the anchor element is screwed into the bone marrow cavity, while the guide bushing serves for the centring and securing of the anchor element. <IMAGE> |
