A one-year follow-up case series on gait analysis and patient-reported outcomes for persons with unilateral and bilateral transfemoral amputations undergoing direct skeletal fixation
The study revealed diverse adaptation patterns after one year in individuals with transfemoral amputations transitioning to bone-anchored prostheses. Additional longer-term data is necessary to enable generalization and clinical implications of these results.
