Hello,

Has anyone heard of a water proof knee for use in a swim leg? The swim legs I have done before consisted of a straight knee without any sort of articulation, however being able to bend the knee is very important to this person. Their regular prosthesis utilizes a Total knee, so some kind of stance control would be important. The patient is 200# , 5' 10, and very active. Thanks for any help you could offer.

Sincerely,

Paul Meyer, CPO
