Dear List
A little girl - age one and a half months has been referred to me to
make her a KAFO - The orthopedic doctor wants a joint at the knee
(fixed ankle) that will enable an increase in extension with the hope of
getting more range, and obviously prevent losing (by limiting the
flexion ) what has been gained
The child is so small ( approx 11c.m.) total length of KAFO that I
don't know what to use for the joint.
Any suggestions?
Does anyone have any experience with Beckers Mondos joint?
Thanks for your help
