Zusammenfassung:An implant device (100d) for engagement with a bone of a subject, said the implant device (100d) comprising a distal end (102d), a proximal end (104d), a central shaft (106d), a longitudinal central axis (108d) and a helical thread portion (110d) having a leading edge (114d) and a trailing edge (116d). A portion of the leading edge (114d) extends in a direction towards the distal end (102d) of the implant further than the most distal portion of the root (112d) of the thread portion (110d); and wherein the trailing edge (116d) extends in a direction of from the most proximal portion of the root (112d) in a radial outward direction and towards the distal end (102d); and a crest portion (118d) disposed between the leading edge (114d) and the trailing edge (116d) and wherein said the crest portion (118d) forms a radially outward portion of the thread portion (110d). Hence, the implant device (100d) improved the axial pull-out strength and reduced stress concentration.
