Osseointegration allows a prosthetic limb to attach directly to the skeleton, bypassing socket-related problems. Long-term physiotherapy has been shown to significantly improve prosthetic use, mobility, and quality of life in TBAP recipients. Over 1,500 procedures have been performed using the OPL implant system. Osseointegration is defined as the direct structural and functional connection between living bone and the surface of a load-bearing implant.
