Аннотация
CASE DESCRIPTION: A 2-month-old child required a bilateral limb amputation, right transtibial, and left transfemoral after a deep burn compromising one-third of the body surface area. Traumatic amputations of lower limbs at such an early age are uncommon and underreported in the literature, especially in middle-income countries.
OBJECTIVE: To describe the long-term follow-up of the prosthetization process after traumatic bilateral amputation of a 2-month-old patient.
TREATMENT: The process started with compensatory prostheses for independent sitting, followed by exoskeletal devices with SACH feet, and finally introduced dynamic feet and knee to achieve progressively independent gait.
OUTCOMES: The patient achieved functionality, autonomy, and social interaction for his age. The habilitation process continues to improve his independent gait and support upcoming life changes.
CONCLUSION: Through a multidisciplinary approach, family support, and timely changes of device components according to the child's development, this patient has been able to achieve a normal life.
