• 論文の詳細を見る

• The principles of UCLA functional long leg brace are composed as follows.1) Quadrilateral socket is used for thigh shell instead of using cuffs of the thigh.2) off set knee joint and PTB pre-tibial shell prevent drop off of the knee and promote stability of gait without using drop-lock and knee-pad.3) Hydraulic ankle unit controls stance phase of gait.We modified UCLA functional brace by using reversed Klenzak joint instead of hyrraulic controled joint and applied them in five post-polio cases.Additionally, we have made new weight-bearing brace using quadrilateral socket and off-set knee joint in two cases.One case is Legg-Perthes' disease, and the other one is postoperative osteomyelitis.
