  The Hosmer (endoskeletal model 60012) will work perfect for this

They offer some light weight options for small people! I have used them
rather successfully in non-traditional applications!... John

Good Afternoon,
We are looking for options in providing an exo or endoskeletal
light
weight mechanical (locking) prosthetic elbow for a transhumeral
amputee.

(small 11 y.o. female)
The hosmer E50 seems a little heavy. Width of sound side elbow
is 2
3/8
Thank you in advance.
Ed
