Dear List,

I have a 50 yo 210 lb male TraumaticTransfemoral amputee in need of a Microprocessor controlled knee. He is active and engages in occasional sports including weight lifting with cardio, long walks, is a home owner in Minnesota which means he has to shovel and snow-blow. Vocationally he is an office worker with minimal ambulation. He is a succesful Mauch SNS wearer with a College Park foot - which he prefers keep. Given this criteria what is the lists opinion as to the best option?
