Prostese ná amputasie regstreeks in been ingeplant
’n Span ortopede van Suid-Afrika het pas die eerste keer in Afrika ’n prostese regstreeks in die oorblywende geamputeerde bo-been van ’n jong vrou ingeplant. Dr Nando Ferreira, die ortopeed van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch wat die span gelei het, vertel hoe dit gedoen is en wie hierby kan baat. Hy bespreek ook die voor- en nadele en die toekoms van dié soort prosteses pleks van tradisionele prosteses waar die stompie in ’n skede gedruk word.

1. Die span ortopede van die Universiteit van Stellenbosch en van die Instituut vir Ortopedie en Reumatologie het op 5 November die eerste keer in Suid-Afrika en Afrika ‘n prostese ná ‘n amputasie regstreeks in die been ingeplant.Die ontvanger was ‘n 28-jarige vrou. Die vader van die prosedure – prof Al Muderis van Australië – het die span bygestaan in die eerste prosedure.
2. Kandidate is diegene wat nie goed vorder met ‘n tradisionele prostese nie, en wat hul been verloor het weens trauma of weens osteosarkoom (beenkanker).
3. Pasiënte wie se beengroei voltooi is – dus ná die tienerjare – is kandidate. Daar nie ‘n bo-perk aan die ouderdom nie, mits die pasiënt andersins gesond is en aan die kriteria soos uiteengesit in (2) en (4) voldoen.
4. Die operasie kan nie gedoen word vir pasiënte
– met diabetes nie,
– wat rook nie,
– wat bloedvat- of bloedvloeiprobleme ondervind nie, en hul ledemaat verloor het weens ‘n siekte wat met bloedvloei te make het nie.
5. Die rehabilitasie ná die inplanting is baie lank omdat die spiere en been weer versterk moet word.
6. Mense kan ná die inplanting en rehabilitasie meer aktief wees, beter voel waar hulle voet is as met ‘n tradisionale prostese (danksy beter propriosepsie), en stap, fietsry, roei en swem, maar nie aan atletiek of sport deelneem nie, omdat mens tot alle mag wil verhoed dat die oorblywende femur breek of verbrokkel, juis omdat dit verswak was.
7. Meer operasies van dié soort sal nou voortaan deur die span gedoen word en is dus nou in Suid-Afrika beskikbaar.
A South African first – New orthopaedic procedure a game changer for amputees
A Stellenbosch University (SU) professor, collaborating with the Institute for Orthopaedics and Rheumatology (IOR) at Mediclinic Winelands, the prosthetist Eugene Rossouw, and Associate Professor Munjed al Muderis of the Osseointegration Group of Australia, performed South Africa’s first osseointegration prosthesis implant on 5 November 2018.
Prof Al Muderis
The procedure was originally developed in Australia by Al Muderis (read more about his incredible journey from a war-torn country, his flight as an Iraqi refugee who defied Saddam Husein, to the brilliant orthopedic surgeon in Australia), and involves the surgical implantation of the Osseointegration Group of Australia Osseointegration Prosthetic Limb (OGAP-OPL).
This affords amputees some unique advantages and can drastically transform their quality of life,” says Prof Nando Ferreira from SU’s Division of Orthopaedics in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (FMHS), who was the lead surgeon on the procedure.
These socket-related problems are eliminated with an osseointegration prosthesis because the prosthetic limb is directly attached to the skeleton. Recipients also have better proprioception (perception of the body’s position and movement) and can feel the surface they are walking on, allowing them to walk with more confidence.

The osseointegration prosthesis also restores the normal anatomical alignment of the thighbone (femur) which significantly reduces common gait deviations in above-knee amputees.
However, the procedure is not without complications. Infection around the implant and fractures of the remaining bone are the most significant complications following osseointegration.
“Candidates are carefully screened for suitability and currently only individuals suffering severe socket problems that significantly interfere with work and daily life, are considered for this procedure,” says Ferreira.
Die X-strale van die eerste pasiënt: Let op die X-strale links, hoe die heupgewrig ongelyk is, en die femur (die bobeen se been) na die buitekant uitdruk – dit kan uiteindelik die vel tussen die been en die prostese stukkend druk). Let ook op die heupgewrig en die hoek van die femur in die X-straal regs (ná die regstreekse inplanting in die been) weer teen die normale hoek funksioneer.
The recipient of South Africa’s first osseointegration prosthesis implant is a 28 year old woman who suffered a traumatic above knee amputation in 2009. Since then she has struggled with her socket prosthesis, which severely interferes with her occupation and activities of daily life. (The patient has chosen to remain anonymous.)
“The unique design, materials and manufacturing process of the OGAP-OPL allows bone to grow into the surface of the implant and therefore ‘integration’ of the prosthesis into the skeleton. A specifically designed abutment then passes through a surgically created opening in the leg stump to create an attachment point for the external prosthetic limb components,” explains Ferreira.
Eugene Rossouw, die prostetikus
“Professor Al Muderis’ enthusiasm for changing the lives of amputees is evident in this tireless work and willingness to train other surgeons in his technique,” says Ferreira, who travelled to Sydney, Australia, along with husband and wife team, Eugene (prosthetist) and Fransien (physiotherapist) Rossouw, to undergo training in the surgical procedure, prosthetic fitment and rehabilitation directly from Al Muderis. This team is currently the only group certified to use the OGAP-OPL prosthesis in South Africa.
Dr Gerhard Pienaar
For the surgery, Ferreira was assisted by Dr Gerhard Pienaar, an orthopaedic surgeon from IOR and Mediclinic Winelands, and Al Muderis, who travelled from Australia to assist with, and supervise the surgery.
The patient is progressing well, and her first prosthesis fitment was done two weeks after the surgery. She has commenced with a 12 weeks rehabilitation protocol that involves progressive weight bearing while using two crutches for six weeks, followed by another six weeks of assisted mobilisation using one crutch.
