The invention relates to an arthrodesis plate for the stiffening of joints, in particular finger joints, comprising a proximal and distal anchoring region which are connected to one another in a mechanically rigid manner, characterised in that at least one outer contour of one of the two anchoring regions has a cross-section which is undulating, for example roof-shaped, or is provided with alternating crests and troughs by means of coating, and/or has a transversal-sagittal cross-section.
