The M.A.S.® socket design is an evolution–and perhaps
even a “revolution”–in the development of ischial containment (IC)
socket concepts. Since 1999, when Marlo Ortiz Vazquez del Mercado,
Ortiz Internacional, Jalisco, Mexico, first unveiled his new
design, it has continued to arouse interest throughout the O&P
worldwide community. Recently the design was featured in the
Thranhardt lecture series during the American Academy of Orthotists
& Prosthetists 2004 Annual Meeting and Scientific
Symposium.
