As of 2012, there is one US Senator serving in a vacated seat.
Dean Heller (R-NV) was appointed following the resignation of John Ensign, and took office on May 9, 2011.
Several other Senators were originally appointed but have since been elected. Some states require special elections to fill vacant seats, while others allow appointment of a replacement by the state governor where authorized by the state legislature.
