A prosthesis including a magnetic implant approximating the size of a bone to be replaced; a first magnetic bone implant securable to a first bone adjacent the bone to be replaced; and a second magnetic bone implant securable to a second bone adjacent the bone to be replaced. Each of the first and second magnetic bone implants have a magnetic relationship with the magnetic implant. A method of reconstructing a wrist includes removing a patient's scaphoid to create a void. The scaphoid has a plurality of adjacent bones, each of the adjacent bones comprising a surface generally facing the void. The surface of at least two of the adjacent bones is prepared by affixing a magnetic element thereto and a magnetic scaphoid implant is inserted into the void. A magnetic relationship exists between the magnetic elements and the magnetic scaphoid implant.

A scaphoid prosthesis comprises a body bounded by an outer surface, wherein the outer surface is substantially corresponding to a patient's scaphoid. The body of the scaphoid prosthesis comprises a tubular base element including a first end portion and a second end portion and a plurality of protruding portions. A passage is provided in the tubular base element for a fixation means for fixing the scaphoid prosthesis in its position. The passage is configured as a curved passage.
