Description: Join leaders in the field of prosthetics and physical therapy to discuss several complex cases of patients with lower-limb amputations. What's the latest evidence to support optimal short and long-term management? And, how do the experts adapt when complications, additional health issues, or lifestyle issues confound or "twist" the optimal approach?

Here is your opportunity to engage in a clinically pertinent discussion of best practice options that confront prosthetists and physical therapists in their daily practice. Two prosthetist/physical therapist teams, who work together frequently, will present cases and engage in some "what if" discussions with expert colleagues.
