Crus Folium is a temporary prothesis for mayor amputations
of the lower limb. It is a modular system, with as few modules as possible, that can be fitted to any amputee taller than 150 cm. It can also adjust to a wide range of stump diameters and different shapes.
After a few days the swelling of the stump already goes down. Conventional prothesis can't be reajusted, so the amputee has to put on various "socks" over the stump, in order to get hold in the prothesis. Crus folium temporarius can be readjusted at any time, so there is always a perfect fit.
