Osseointegration canine limb prosthesis studies: system, interface characteristics, material, manufacturer, number of patients, and outcomes.

Outcome based on one dog only because other dogs had to be euthanized [19]. Thus, such outcome may have been reduced due to problems unrelated to the prostheses.
