Development of a simulated transtibial amputee model

open access: yes2019 IEEE International Conference on Autonomous Robot Systems and Competitions (ICARSC), 2019
Currently, there are more than 30 million amputees in the world and each year thousands of people suffer from amputation and, therefore, the development of lower limb prostheses is crucial to improve the quality of millions of people's lives by restoring their mobility.

Transtibial Amputations

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1999
The transtibial amputation is one of the most frequently performed major limb amputations in the United States. The long posterior flap technique has become the most frequently recommended technique; however, the surgeon performing amputations needs to be comfortable with the alternative techniques as well.

Nerve Decompression and Distal Transtibial Amputation

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2022
Approximately 20% of patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) endorse painful sensations such as prickling, stabbing, and burning pain that reflect small-fiber involvement. Although glycemic control is crucial to delay the onset and progression of DPN, there have been many reports on the use of decompression nerve surgery to aid in the ...

Osteomyoplastic Transtibial Amputation

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2016
Amputation may be required for management of lower extremity trauma and medical conditions, such as neoplasm, infection, and vascular compromise. The Ertl technique, an osteomyoplastic procedure for transtibial amputation, can be used to create a highly functional residual limb.

Total knee replacement in a transtibial amputee

BMJ Case Reports, 2022
We present the case of a man in his 60s with a transtibial amputation (TTA) undergoing total knee replacement (TKR) for symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA). It is unusual to develop OA in the ipsilateral knee to TTA; and while it is postulated that this is because patients preferentially load their unaffected limb to protect the TTA-sided knee, there is ...

Extended Posterior Flap for Transtibial Amputation

Orthopedics, 2005
This article presents a modified posterior flap technique for transtibial amputation, which includes a thick posterior fascio-myocutaneous flap at least 5 cm longer than the traditional flap, two separate layers of fascia! closure, and proximal translation of the suture line.

Transtibial Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2021
AbstractThe keys to successful posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction are to identify and treat all pathology, utilize strong graft material, accurately place tunnels in anatomic insertion sites, minimize graft bending, mechanical graft tensioning, secure graft fixation, and the appropriate postoperative rehabilitation program.

Control of the Residual Tibia in Transtibial Amputation

Foot & Ankle International, 1996
Eight transtibial amputees had localized unremitting discomfort and pain in the distal anterior residual limb during prosthetic wear while weightbearing. Modification of the prosthetic socket did not change this pain. It was not consistent with “phantom limb” or causalgia/reflex sympathetic dystrophy-type etiologies.

Checklist for evaluating a transtibial prosthesis

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2001
A thorough initial evaluation and ongoing follow-up are critical to an amputee's success with his or her prosthesis. A checklist is presented as a guide for the rehabilitation team to perform a clinical evaluation of a transtibial prosthesis. This evaluation is a tool to standardize the assessment process and to improve patient care.
