The invention is generally directed to the novel and unique modular
implant that provides an improved surface for interfacing with an
external prosthesis. The implant includes a stem, an optional extension
member connected to the stem, a prosthetic condyle, or in the case of
application to other levels of cut bone amputations, a location-specific
terminal shape, connected to the extension member. The stem is inserted
directly into the canal of the bone and tissue, including muscle, is
attached directly to the prosthetic and the stem is inserted directly
into the canal of the bone. The simulated anatomically correct condyle
better distributes the load of the patient's weight and avoids twisting
thereby relieving pain to improve the functional connection between the
residual limb and an external prosthesis in all levels of upper and lower
extremity amputations. The surgically implanted internal prosthetic
simplifies and lowers the cost of rehabilitation and results in an
improvement in the function of all existing external prosthetic
components and systems.
