Text:

Looking for a prosthetic prescription for a moderately long trans femoral
amputee who had a Girdle Stone procedure. He had it done 30 years ago but
just recently became an amputee.

He has weak extensors, flexors, ad &abductors but a strong sound side and
good upper body strength and balance.

Also requestin advice concerning the potential problems with this type of
amputation. Thank you for your help.
