Claim One:
1. A neural prosthesis, comprising: a coupling element receptacle, and at least one coupling element having a first coupling portion and a second coupling portion, the at least one coupling element being made of non-resorbable material comprising at least one of titanium or surgical steels, the at least one coupling element being bonded to the coupling element receptacle, the first coupling portion being arrangeable at a first nerve area and the second coupling portion being arrangeable at a second nerve area, so that the first nerve area and the second nerve area are coupleable by means of the neural prosthesis, the coupling element receptacle including a plurality of rod-shaped and/or tubular conducting elements having ends arrangeable between or in contact with a first nerve end and a second nerve end, the plurality of rod-shaped and/or tubular conducting elements being non-concentric to each other and being parallel to each other, the at least one coupling element being arranged in the coupling element receptacle, and the first coupling portion and the second coupling portion projecting beyond a first contact area and a second contact area of the coupling element receptacle, respectively.
