An ossicle prosthesis (10), which replaces or spans at least one member of
the human ossicle chain; the ossicle prosthesis (10) has a securing
element embodied as a first elastic clip (11), for mechanical connection
with a member of the ossicle chain, the securing element is open towards
the outside on one side, with an outer opening (14) for receiving the
ossicle member. The securing element form-lockingly embraces the ossicle
member with two regions which are joined together on their ends located
diametrically opposite the outer opening (14) via a portion extending at
a spacing from the ossicle member. The portion connecting the two regions
has at least two circular recesses (19a, 19b), which are curved outward
in a circular arc from the member of the ossicle chain.
