See full text

An implantation device and method for applying the same has an implantation device for implantation in a target structure such as a bone. The implantation device comprises a shaft region, wherein the shaft region has at least one protrusion. The protrusion comprises a material which is modifiable by using mechanical energy. In particular, the modifiable material may be liquefiable and/or shearable by the mechanical energy. Preferably, the material may be adapted in such a way that the modifications may be achievable by a mechanical energy input which does not destroy human tissue.
