The invention is related to an arrangement used to attach a prosthesis to one or more fixtures (1) anchored in a person's bone tissue. Such a fixture (1) has a fastening part (8) for the prosthesis and said fastening part has a supporting surface (9) that engages a bearing surface (13) on the prosthesis. In accordance with the first aspect of the invention such a fixture (1) on its supporting surface (9) is provided with a deformation device (18). This is plastically deformable in a direction perpendicular to supporting surface (9) to compensate for any misalignment between supporting surface (9) and bearing surface (13). In accordance with a second aspect of the invention, the deformation device is, instead, arranged on the prosthesis supporting surface (13) in a corresponding way. The invention also incorporates a prosthesis anchoring system that includes a fixture having a deformation device.

Cette invention se rapporte à un système utilisé pour fixer une prothèse à un ou plusieurs éléments de fixation (1) ancrés dans le tissu osseux d'un sujet. L'élément de fixation (1) possède une pièce de boulonnerie (8) pour la prothèse et cette pièce de boulonnerie comporte une surface de support (9) qui vient coopérer avec une surface d'appui (13) de la prothèse. Selon un premier aspect de cette invention, l'élément de fixation (1) comporte sur sa surface de support (9) un dispositif de déformation (18), lequel est plastiquement déformable dans une direction perpendiculaire à la surface de support (9) pour compenser tout défaut d'alignement entre la surface de support (9) et la surface d'appui (13). Selon un second aspect de cette invention, le dispositif de déformation, à la différence de celui mentionné dans le premier aspect de l'invention, est disposé sur la surface de support (13) de la prothèse mais de manière correspondante. Cette invention se rapporte également à un système d'ancrage de prothèse qui contient un élément de fixation ayant un dispositif de déformation.
