An endoprothetical connection element for creating a knee arthrodesis
comprises a coupling element that comprises a first fastener and a second
fastener. The first fastener is adapted for connection with a first
fastening element corresponding to the first fastener that is provided at
a shaft insertable into a femur of a patient. The second fastener is
adapted for connection with a second fastening element corresponding to
the second fastener that is provided at a shaft insertable into a tibia
of the patient. The coupling element is formed such that a first
longitudinal axis of the femoral shaft connected to the first fastener
and a second longitudinal axis of the tibial shaft connected to the
second fastener include an angle different from 180 degrees which, when
implanted into the body of the patient, is lying in a coronal plane of
the patient.
