In the video you can see a NEURO SWING partial foot prosthesis in practical use. The patient had to undergo a forefoot amputation after the sole of his foot became inflamed following an injury. The patient now wears a prosthesis covering the ankle with NEURO SWING system ankle joint in combination with an individually designed residual limb socket. This state-of-the-art medical device compensates for the functional shortening of the forefoot lever and thus enables the patient to stand and walk in a physiological manner.

The video shows a patient with CMT (Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease). CMT is a progressive disease of the peripheral nerves. Both motor and sensory nerves are affected.
