The flexible Prothoflex socket is made to measure, consisting of a rigid frame open at the front and at the rear made of carbon fibers that serves as a supporting structure, and a flexible part made of a polyurethane resin. The advantages of flexible socket are the low weight and adaptability of the flexible walls to changes in the volume of the stump, due, for example, to muscle contractions.
The flexible socket offers the patient several advantages over the rigid wall, such as maintaining the muscle activity of the stump and a considerable increase in the comfort of the socket.
This type of socket allows a perfect geometric interlocking and the patient feels to be one with the prosthesis. During the sitting, it has greater comfort because there is not a rigid but totally flexible ischial paddle.It increases the stability of the femoral axis, allowing a more fluid and dynamic walk.
