Abstract:
An ambulatory device adapted for attachment to the thigh and shin of a human leg. The ambulatory device includes a leg splint having an elongated thigh support and an elongated shin support extending outwardly from the thigh support at an obtuse angle. The thigh support is constructed of a rigid material and includes a front section adapted to flatly abut against the front of the thigh and spaced apart side sections adapted to abut against opposite sides of the human thigh. A fastener secures the thigh support to the thigh against movement while, similarly, a second fastener secures the shin support to the shin of the leg. An elongated leg has one end attached to and extending perpendicularly outwardly from the shin support while a foot plate is attached to the other end of the leg.
