Hi folks,
I am looking for suggestions for a polycentric orthotic knee joint which can be used to unload lateral compartment OA and doesn't require medial and lateral joints. I was looking at Fillauer's OAK joint but it is contraindicated for lateral compartment. I also need a joint that can be used for in-house fabrication using thermoplastic not laminate.
Thanks,
cheryl
