Abstract

The invention concerns a prosthetic mounting clip (1) having a monolithic structure, made of a biologically absorbable plastic material, comprising a distal anchoring element (2) in an anatomical support (8), a proximal stop element (3) relative to a prosthetic part (9), and a connecting rod (4) linking the distal anchoring element (2) and the proximal stop element (3), the connecting rod (4) being arranged relative to the distal anchoring element (2), to determine at least two positions of said connecting rod (4), namely an inoperative position wherein the connecting rod (4) is arranged along a direction (R) relative to the distal anchoring element (2), and another stressed position wherein the connecting rod (4) is folded back against the distal anchoring element (2) along a second direction (P). The invention is characterised in that, in the inoperative position of the connecting rod (4), the first direction (R) is inclined relative to the second direction (P), parallel to the anchoring element (2), at an acute angle not greater than 90.degree., and for example equal to about 45.degree..
