An implantable component is described which is connectable to a manipulating device in a self-retaining manner by a coupling device, which provides a first coupling element and a second coupling element. The implantable component can thus be really positioned by the manipulating device which can, for example, already be connected to the implantable component before a therapeutic procedure and can be separated therefrom again after the surgical procedure. This is in particular advantageous with minimally invasive procedures.
