Abstract: A prosthesis, in particular a shoulder prosthesis, includes a socket part receiving a joint head; an anchoring part anchoring the prosthesis in a bone; and a connecting arrangement securely connecting the socket part to the anchoring part. The socket part is assigned at least one pin and the anchoring part has at least one guide. The guide is designed in such a way that the pin can be held substantially safe from tilting in the guide.

Abstract: A prosthesis for replacing a surface in an area of a ball of a ball-and-socket joint includes a spherical shell section having an outer surface that is configured to lie in an articular fossa and is for attachment to a surface. The shell section having a cavity for receiving a bone end. The prosthesis also includes a crown that partitions the cavity of the shell section into a first cavity and a second cavity, wherein a shape of the shell section is at least a section of a hemisphere and a free edge of the crown lies in the same plane as a free edge of the shell section.

Abstract: An implantable prosthesis having at least two portions which are displaceable relative to each other, in particular a prosthesis for the upper end of a human upper arm comprising a shaft which can be inserted into a bone passage and a dome-shaped joint head which is to be associated with the adjacent joint head and which can be connected to an end face of the shaft in an eccentric position or a neutral position relative to the center axis thereof by means of an intermediate disk which has a circular periphery and which comprises both in relation to the joint head and in relation to the shaft a respective insert pin or the like peg-shaped portion formed thereon which can be inserted into a bore, wherein the mutually displaceable portions of the prosthesis are arranged steplessly displaceably relative to each other at at least one displacement plane which is determined by the surface of a portion about axes which are determined by the insert pins of the intermediate disk.
