TMA partial foot prosthesis

Ben George

Hello colleagues,
 
I am working on providing a lady in her mid 40’s with a partial foot prosthesis.  She is non diabetic with good sensation and circulation.  She has good skin condition w/ no history of chronic breakdown.  Her amputation was the result of a traumatic injury during her adolesence.  She is currently using a functional partial foot prosthesis with toe filler which has been successful for ADL’s.  However, she has inquired about a more aesthetic prosthesis for “special” occasions.  Does anyone know of a central fab that can fabricate a prosthesis similar to those pictured below with a skin covering?  Have you had success with providing these types of prosthesis for patients who need them for limited use?  Thanks for any suggestions and for sharing any past experiences.
