Geriatrik Bilateral Transfemoral Amputede Stubbies Denemesi

Abstract

Bilateral transfemoral amputations are rarely in lower extremity amputations. The most common causes diabetic vascular disease and trauma. Geriatric bilateral amputees require the serious challenges of the rehabilitation team and delay the prosthetic rehabilitation
