Zusammenfassung:A set of prostheses of different sizes comprises in each case a pair of prostheses (10, 10*), which apart from the clear external contour of their anchoring sections (20, 20*) have the same geometry. The anchoring section (20) of a first prosthesis (10) of the pair is constructed as an anchoring section with a cage structure which can be implanted in a cement-free manner, whilst the anchoring section (20*) of the second prosthesis of the pair is constructed as an anchoring section with smooth boundary surfaces which is to be cemented in place. The clear external surface of the anchoring section (20) of the prosthesis (10) which is to be implanted in a cement-free manner lies at a substantially constant distance beyond the clear external surface of the anchoring section (20*) of the prosthesis (10*) which is to be cemented in place. In this manner, the surgeon can still decide, after preparing the bone end, whether he prefers a cemented prosthesis (10*) or a prosthesis (10) which is to be incorporated without cement.
