Limb Prostheses<br />

The concept of modular lower limb prostheses was invented by Otto Bock. Today,<br />

this type of prosthesis is the standard solution used in orthopedic care provided<br />

to prosthesis users.<br />

Components are fastened to each other in a way that ensures their easy disassembly<br />

and replacement. Static corrections during alignment, trial fitting and even<br />

after finalization of the prosthesis may be made at any time in a clear and reproducible<br />

manner.<br />

In order to meet individual user requirements, we offer a large number of functionally<br />

different components made of aluminum, titanium and stainless steel.<br />

As a further development of our Otto Bock Classification System®, MOBIS® will<br />

help you make the right choice for the specific indication. Use the MOBIS® symbol<br />

to select modular components according to the Mobility Grade and patient<br />

weight in order to achieve customized fitting.<br />

As part of our continuous innovation, we are improving the modular system to<br />

meet the increasingly sophisticated requirements of prosthesis users. One of our<br />

landmark achievements was the introduction of the fully microprocessor-controlled<br />

C-Leg® prosthesis system, the first of its kind in the world.<br />
