First seen Feb 06, 2026 · Last updated May 26, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests a titanium implant that connects directly to the shinbone, allowing a prosthetic leg to attach without a socket. It involves 30 adults with below-knee amputations who have trouble using traditional socket prosthetics. The goal is to see if this approach reduces skin problems, improves mobility, and enhances quality of life over five years.
