The second portion is movable relative to the first portion about a pivot axis spaced from a plantar/dorsal pivot axis of the patient. A control device controls relative movement between the first and second portions about the pivot axis. The control device is connected with an anterior portion of the first portion and an upper portion of the second portion.
