Facial reconstruction with a bone-anchored prosthesis following destructive cancer surgery. [PDF]

open access: yesOncol Lett, 2012
Reconstruction of craniofacial defects following cancer surgery may be performed using several techniques and materials. This case report describes surgery for a large tumor, as well as the rehabilitation process which involved a craniofacial prosthesis covering the whole defect of the anterior brain, orbit, mid-face and hard palate.

Non-infectious skeletal complications in the lower extremity after treatment with a transfemoral bone-anchored prosthesis: a retrospective observational study [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Open
Background The use of bone-anchored prostheses (BAPs) has greatly increased quality of life for lower limb amputees. However, the long-term frequency of skeletal fractures and the need for arthroplasty surgery in the lower extremities following BAP use ...

Implant Load During Running on a Transtibial Bone Anchored Prosthesis: A Multibody Modelling Case Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics
A bone-anchored prosthesis (BAP) offers a promising approach to solve socket-related problems for persons with a lower leg amputation, with the added benefit of direct load transfer. In the recent years, implants utilized in BAPs performed well in daily living activities such as walking. However, it is unknown if high impact activities, such as running,

Radiographic Imaging to improve frontal plane weight bearing symmetry and its impact on gait in transtibial bone anchored prosthesis users [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Optimal frontal plane alignment of transtibial bone-anchored prostheses (BAPs) is essential to minimize knee joint loading asymmetries. This study examined whether bilateral whole-leg radiographic imaging could improve static alignment and reduce knee ...
