Popis: It has long been realized that many patients who have their lower limbs amputated have a difficult and prolonged period of rehabilitation consequent upon stump difficulties. We would like to describe a scheme which eliminates, to a large degree, many of these troubles. The "immediate" walking of a patient who has had his lower limb amputated was first suggested by Professor Marian Weiss of Poland during the Ninth World Congress of the International Society for Rehabilitation of the Disabled held in Copenhagen in 1963.
