HKAFO & KAFO Femoral Fracture Orthosis

Maramed’s custom fabricated femoral fracture orthoses are available in various configurations to effectively match the indications of your patient. The standard thigh component insures sufficient medial/lateral soft tissue compression while maintaining proper joint alignment as the soft tissue atrophies. The tibia component allows anterior posterior compression. The hip, thigh, hip & knee joint, tibia and heel cup components of the orthosis can be selected from the different styles shown on the following page. An orthometry diagram is included to assist with obtaining the proper measurements for ordering.
