Osseointegrated Amputation Prosthesis for Patients

Osseo-integrated prostheses involve direct contact between the titanium implant and the bone. They provide an alternative for patients who cannot use conventional socket prostheses, because of recurrent skin infections, ulceration in the socket contact area, a short residual limb or extensive skin grafting.

For a well-defined group of patients, this type of prostheses has proven to be efficient and safe. Hence, the commission de remboursement des implants et des dispositifs medicaux invasifs (CRIDMI) of the RIZIV-INAMI recently decided to reimburse osseo-integrated prostheses under the conditions mentioned in annex 2.

Registration of additional information via healthdata is part of the reimbursement conditions. 3 years after the start of the reimbursement, the implanting and rehabilitation centres will have to draft a report to the CRIDMI based on the registered data.

Principal inclusion and exclusion criteria
Principal inclusion criteria	Patients who comply to the inclusion criteria as determined in CRIDMI note n° 2016/323 – see annex 2: Patients with a major amputation of at least 2/3rd of the femoral length or ½ of the humeral length, and for whom the use of a socket prosthesis is technically impossible. OR Patients who had a transfemoral or transhumeral amputation and for whom a normal and sustainable use of the socket prosthesis is impossible as a result of recurring dermatological problems which can not be treated by a prosthesist, by dermatological treatment or via surgery. AND The patient’s general condition must allow implanting the implant according to the instructions and must allow to attend a rehabilitation program. The patient is less than 70 years of age, and in case of a femoral implant has a weight (prosthesis included) of less than 100kg. The patient engages to strictly follow the rehabilitation program The number of patients that are eligible for reimbursement is estimated at around 10 per year.
