Team Approach: Osseointegration Amputation Surgery

>> The purpose of this article was to review the multidisciplinary, team-based approach necessary for the optimal management of patients with limb loss undergoing osseointegration surgery. >> In this study, we describe the interdisciplinary process of screening, counseling, and surgical and rehabilitation considerations with an emphasis on principles rather than specific implants or techniques. >> Integrated perioperative management and long-term surveillance are crucial to ensure the best possible outcomes. >> We hope this model will service as an implant-agnostic guide to others seeking to development an osseointegration center of excellence.
