Listserve,
We are treating aTF golfer who was competitive in our area playing golf, since the loss of his right leg he tells me it is impossible to transfer his weight and have rotation. We have him on a weight activated knee currently and are trying knees without much success. The patient also has a single axis foot with a rotator at the knee.
The patients response as we are changing components is that we are not making a difference even with hydraulic knees , flex feet......
If you have suggestions I'd like to hear from you.
Thanks in Advance
