ABSTRACT:
A U-shaped bow forming a bottom-sided yoke and side legs forms together with a curved front wall and upper rearwardly extending curved flaps an absolutely stiff shell for a patient's leg in order to hold the ankle absolutely immovable. The thin-walled ankle support structure replaces the usual cast and can already be used a short period after an operation of the ankle has been made.
