The present invention relates to a joint prosthesis, comprising two
prosthesis members (2, 3) which are adapted to be positioned at different
bones (39, 41, 42) at a joint (38), wherein each prosthesis member (2, 3)
includes a first and a second screw-like member (4, 5) respectively,
which are adapted to be screwed onto the respective bone (39, 41, 42).
One prosthesis member (2) includes a member (6) having a socket and the
other prosthesis member (3) a member (7) having a head, whereby the
socket member (6) has a mounting pin (22) which is insertable into a
first hole (10) in the first screw-like member (4) for positioning or
locating the socket member (6) thereto and whereby the head member (7)
has a mounting pin (27) which is insertable into a first hole (11) in the
second screw-like member (5) for positioning or locating said head member
(7) thereto. In the first as well as in the second screw-like member (4,
5) there is provided at least one inner second hole (30 and 33
respectively) which is designed to permit insertion thereinto of a rod
(31) of a screw tool (32) in order to secure by screwing the first and
second screw-like member (4, 5) respectively, at the respective bone (39,
41, 42). The second hole (30 and 33 respectively) is provided in a bottom
(17 and 19 respectively) of the first hole (10 and 11 respectively).
