Introduction Bone-anchored prostheses (BAP) are an advanced reconstructive surgical
approach for individuals who had transfemoral amputation and are unable to use the …

Background The most frequently occurring adverse events in individuals with a transfemoral
amputation treated with a bone-anchored prosthesis are soft tissue infections and stoma …

Complications of transcutaneous osseointegrated prosthetic systems (TOPS) focus on the
metal-cutaneous interface at the stoma. Besides pain due to scare tissue as well as …

Osseointegrated transfemoral prostheses experience aseptic complications with an
incidence between 3% and 30%. The main aseptic risks are implant loosening, adverse …

Besides the need for biomaterial surface modification to improve cellular attachment, laser-
structuring is favorable for designing a new surface topography for external bone fixator pins …

Background Transfemoral osseointegrated prostheses, like other uncemented prostheses
experience the risk of aseptic loosening and post-operative periprosthetic fractures, with an …

Purpose To evaluate the implant survival rate, mechanical complications, and reported
patient outcomes of bone-anchored prostheses for patients with lower limb amputation in …

Objectives This study will first standardize the zoning and reporting of periprosthetic bone
change in POI radiographs. Second, it will retrospectively measure periprosthetic bone …

Background: The biology of osseointegration of any intramedullary implant depends on the
design, the press-fit anchoring, and the loading history of the endoprosthesis. In particular …

Résumé Le nombre d'amputations traumatiques du membre inférieur (ATMI) augmente
