Catalan hospital implants revolutionary prosthesis directly attached to the amputees' skeleton

Groundbreaking prosthetic technology developed by a Catalan hospital is making a big difference in the lives of above-the-knee amputees. Unlike traditional methods which consist of a socket being placed over the stump, this prosthesis is directly attached to the amputees’ femur, thus allowing for greater sensitivity and comfort.
