Flexible sockets

Molly Pitcher

Dear O&P List

What are preferences regarding flexible inner sockets for a

trans-femoral prosthesis? I am considering using PE but am concerned

about shrinkage. My patient has been using a suralyn 1/4″ draped molded

check socket now for several months. The finished product will be

bubbled molded with a carbon frame(no cutouts). Am looking for a

flexible proximal edge. Thank you for your suggestions. Molly Pitcher
