I think that I should complete my previous post about this matter : Dear members
A male amputee has reffered to me with his left leg amputated across the tibia , 3cm distal to knee and knee has been fixed in a slight degree of flexion .
He,s used a knee prosthesis bearing his weight from both the end of the stamp and ischial tuberosity .
He has mush schars in lateral thigh and has used his prothesis for more than 20 yaers .
Now he is intended to have a prosthesis with microprocessor knee joint .
Do anyone knows any microprocessror knee suitable for him?
I also appreciate your input about the best type of socket for this amputee .
Best regards
