I have an extremely active eighteen year old male who underwent a Van Nes
Rotation-Plasty procedure in August. His temporary prosthesis had a
Bocklite liner as a socket interface, single axis Becker joints and a
thermoplastic thigh lacer. We are now starting his definitive prosthesis.
I am curious as to what materials and designs have been successfully
utilized by other practitioners. I would appreciate hearing everyone's
ideas and experiences.

Thanks,
Frank
