Find out if the C-Leg® is Right for You
The C-Leg® is intended for use only for amputation levels above the knee. Hip disarticulation and hemipelvectomy level amputees can also take advantage of the C-Leg® when it is used in conjunction with Otto Bock's Helix3D hip joint.
We recommend the C-Leg® if you're a more active user who can take advantage of its Dynamic Swing Control and second mode. Our companion knee joint, the Compact, is right for those who simply need the best in stability.
If you have any questions about whether C-Leg® technology is right for you, please talk to your prosthetist. Don't have a prosthetist? Click here to find one in your area.
How to Be Fit With the C-Leg®
The C-Leg® must be fit by C-Leg® Qualified Prosthetists. They've invested two full days in the classroom to master our customizing software, and will set the knee for all the ways you walk—fast and slow, indoors and out.
