Osseointegration
Osseointegration or direct skeletal fixation is the process of bone cells adhering to a metal implant.
Osseointegration
The implant penetrates through the skin, allowing attachment of an artificial limb to the human skeleton via a connector.
Conventional socket wearers frequently have problems with dermatitis, intolerable perspiration and difficulty walking on uneven surfaces. Osseointegration avoids these problems and carries advantages such as stability and improved joint movement.
