PO-17 · Complications of Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Mobility

Complications of Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Mobility. Part of the Prosthetics & Orthotics series of the Reflex PM&R Board Review podcast. Audio correction: In the audio: Notably, it never occurs in the femur. — Correct: The femur is affected by terminal bony overgrowth. The order of frequency is humerus, then fibula, then tibia, then femur; the femur is fourth of four, not excluded. The exclusion also removes the reason knee disarticulation is preferred over a diaphyseal transfemoral cut in a growing child. The written chapter is correct.
