A prosthesis includes first and second prosthetic limb components and a fastening system for fastening the first and second prosthetic limb components. The first prosthetic limb component is provided with a first coupling member and the second prosthetic limb component is provided with a second coupling member. The first coupling member includes a cylindric member having an axis, with a wall generally parallel with said axis. The second coupling member includes a circular skirt element having an axis and having corresponding external dimensions to the cylindric member whereby to permit a sliding fit therewith in an unfastened state. The fastening system includes a resilient member having an axis and is operable to expand laterally, orthogonally with respect to the axis such that, in a coupling mode of operation, the lateral expansion operates to cause the skirt to be in a state of frictional engagement with the other coupling member.

A system for creating a prosthesis includes a deformable measuring bag fillable with beads or pellets, an air evacuation tube coupled to the deformable measuring bag and connectable to a vacuum source, supports coupled to the deformable measuring bag for supporting the deformable measuring bag, and a connection element for connecting the deformable measuring bag to a prosthetic limb.

A prosthetic appendage for attachment to an outer extremity of an amputated limb that is composed of modular elements fabricated by three-dimensional printing. In one embodiment the prosthetic appendage is a leg. The prosthetic leg includes a foot portion and a plurality of modular and three-dimensionally printed limb elements. One of the plurality of limb elements is pivotally coupled to the foot portion and another of the limb elements is configured at one end to receive the outer extremity of the amputated leg. In another embodiment of the present invention the prosthetic appendage is a hand. The prosthetic hand includes a wrist element with one end configured to receive the outer extremity of an amputated hand, a base portion attached to the wrist element and a plurality of modular and three-dimensionally printed finger elements selectively coupled to adjacent finger elements or the base to form prosthetic fingers.

A prosthetic arm apparatus comprising a plurality of segments that provide a user of the prosthetic arm apparatus with substantially the same movement capability and function as a human arm. The segments are connectable to one another and connectable to a harness mount that may be adorned by the user. Each segment of the plurality of segments provides a portion of the movement capability, enabling the plurality of connected segments connected to the harness mount to provide substantially the same movement capability as that lacking in the user.

Methods, systems and devices that provide a therapeutic solution to alleviate the pain and discomfort of phantom limb syndrome are disclosed. The methods and systems of the present invention generally comprise capturing data from recording devices operably coupled to a processor and/or computing device, the recording devices configured to capture data associated with intact portions of a missing limb, one or more intact limbs and/or portions of the environment surrounding the missing limb, identifying the data captured, generating a three-dimensional virtual image of the missing limb and the surrounding environment from the data captured, and displaying the three-dimensional virtual image and the portions of the surrounding environment to the amputee such that the missing limb appears intact. The present invention advantageously provides a therapeutic and more immediate solution to alleviate the pain and discomfort from phantom limb syndrome.
