Outcomes in transhumeral upper limb amputation with osseointegration and targeted muscle reinnervation: A preliminary observational cohort study
Cases with OI and TMR reported better residual limb health, greater intuitiveness, and more hours of daily prosthesis use than controls. Further study with larger samples is warranted to investigate the additive benefit of both OI and TMR.
