Description
An above-knee prosthesis pairs a molded ischial containment socket with the knee unit your walking pattern calls for, from a simple single-axis knee to a microprocessor unit. We fit a clear test socket first so you feel the fit before the final carbon socket is laminated.
Good to know
- Ischial containment socket, carbon or thermoplastic
- Single-axis, polycentric or microprocessor knee
- Endoskeletal pylon with foam cover
- Test socket fitted before final lamination
