Abstract
Currently available implants for osseointegration in transfemoral amputees are OPRA system and ISP System which shows many advantages over conventional socket fixation. To overcome the limiting issues like periprosthetic bone losses in osseointegration, a new design was developed. The analysis of both OPRA and New design was compared with a normal femur bone during daily activities. The results show that there is considerable bone fracture during OPRA implantation and the new design is far better. When Compared to normal femur bone the stress induced was at the proximal femur and in the medial region for osseointegrated bone.
