Looking for Angular Plate Adapter for flexion contracture

Looking for Angular Plate Adapter for flexion contracture

Paul Prusakowski

9/8/2008

Dear colleagues,

 

I have an older patient with a long transfemoral amputation and a 10 degree
flexion contracture. In this patient's case, a locking liner is my best
option, but I am in need of a plate that can be attached to the base of the
4-hole locking mechanism to bring my TKA line into proper alignment.

 

I have seen these gadgets at some of the shows, but now that I need one I
can't remember who makes them and time is limited between finishing my
patient care day and hopping on a plane for the annual meeting.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Paul P.
