hemipelvectomy seating and prosthesis

Steve Hegg

Our son is a recent amputee due to a motorcycle accident on Aug l5, 1997. His

amputation is on the left and includes his left butt and is cut on an angle

to his waist. Due to the amount of pressure on the right buttock when

sitting, we are looking for any info regarding seating both for his

wheelchair and for seating in general. We are also interested in any info

regarding a prosthesis (full leg and something similar to an artificial

butt cheek for the left side.) Currently he is able to tolerate sitting

for only 10 to 15 minutes at a time. Thank you for any info you may be able

to provide.
