Text:

Patient is female, 35 yrs., weak hip flexors, typical PFFD limb, end of socket 3/4 above KC. Has difficulty initiating swing, no knee stabity problems due to angle of limb putting KC posterior to midline. What knee would you recommend that will swing with very little effort, be short for sitting/kneeling length and be very light in weight?

I will post replies.
