    Osseointegration

    Osseointegration (OI), also known as direct skeletal fixation (DSF), is a surgical procedure that involves fitting a metal implant directly into the bone and allowing for a prosthesis to be connected to it. Surgery can be performed in one or two stages, depending on the type of implant system involved. Osseointegration aims to provide improved mobility and function and quality of life to individuals who have undergone amputation.
