Hello All,
I have a patient who had a severe PCL rupture and has been using the Rebound PCL by Ossur. He has rehabed but still has significant instability, at this time he would like to try a different, more rigid custom brace. I know there are several available but I haven't used any in a few years - Any recommendations?
The patient is 67, 5'5 about 220. Injured in a motorcycle accident - his Harley was totaled. Not a surgical candidate. Moderate activity level for his age.
Thanks Paul for creating this great forum - I look forward to seeing the replies and will post them next week.
Thanks!
