Children with flail feet who have control of their hips and knees are able to walk but are unable to stand still and find it difficult to walk slowly. These problems have been overcome in fifty-three children with flail feet due to myelomeningocele by fitting them with below-knee orthoses which provide maximum stability and yet allow normal walking. The biomechanical principles and the development of the orthoses are discussed.
患有连枷足且能控制髋部和膝盖的儿童能够行走，但无法站立不动，且难以缓慢行走。通过为53名因脊髓脊膜膨出而患有连枷足的儿童佩戴能提供最大稳定性且不妨碍正常行走的膝下矫形器，这些问题已得到解决。文中讨论了该矫形器的生物力学原理及研发情况。
