ABSTRACT:
A knee brace having a femur support section pivotally connected to a tibia support section is provided. The femur support section has a medial frame and a lateral frame, sandwiched between width adjustment plates. The width adjustment plates hold the lateral and medial frames, and are held together by retainer bolts and nuts. The retainer bolts and nuts can be loosened to permit the lateral frame and the medial frame to slide against the width adjustment plates. Thus, the space between the lateral frame and the medial frame can be adjusted according to the size of the wearer's leg.
