This study investigates the integration of a novel composite porous titanium skin and bone integrated pylon (SBIP-3), highlighting its efficacy in enhancing fixation methods for in-bone implanted prostheses. The longitudinal section of the tibia reveals extensive woven bone apposition along exposed fin tips, showcasing the binding efficacy between the fin and implant. The findings indicate significant potential for improved rehabilitation outcomes, as demonstrated in the detailed analysis within the context of innovative prosthetic fixation techniques.
