Back and thigh pain of unusual etiology complicates rehabilitation after bilateral total knee arthroplasty.

abstract：:We report on the results of gait analysis in a patient with bilateral knee disarticulation amputations who used short nonarticulated prosthetic limbs (stubbies) to meet his ambulation needs over an extended period. To compensate for the loss of knee and ankle articulations, exaggerated pelvic obliquity (hip hiking), t...
