A device for insertion into an amputated bone and a method for inserting the device into an amputated bone are described. The device comprises a stem configured to be inserted into a cavity of the amputated bone. The device further comprises a head coupled to the stem. The head has a diameter greater than the diameter of the stem. The head further has a flat surface configured to interface with a severed surface of the amputated bone. The head and stem are fabricated from a moldable porous matrix material configured to promote bone growth within the matrix. A device for bridging a first amputated bone and a second amputated bone is also described.
