Osseointegration Claims

We are the UK's leading solicitors for osseointegration claims, securing interim payments and final compensation awards to enable clients to travel to Sweden and Australia to receive this pioneering technology.

What is Osseointegration?

Osseointegration (OI) is the technology whereby a titanium implant is surgically implanted directly into the bone, eliminating the need for traditional socket-based prosthetics.

The direct integration into bone has been shown to transmit sensory signals back into the leg; meaning a certain level of feeling gradually returns - a phenomenon known as osseoperception.

Once the titanium rod is securely fixed, a lighter and stronger than traditional prosthetic limb can be attached via a quick release mechanism, which allows for total freedom from rigid socket systems and eliminates the complications commonly associated with traditional socket based prosthesis limbs, such as chafing, sweating and, most notably, the need for frequent socket changes.

Although osseointegration is not automatically available in personal injury claims or medical negligence claims in the UK, we have successfully secured the treatment for several clients, often when other solicitors have been unable to secure the necessary funding.
