Abstract
A knee orthodic is provided with two load-bearing joints (), each joint having a proximal leg () and a distal leg (). The knee orthodic, may be adapted more easily to a changing knee width. This is achieved in that the proximal legs () are connected by a proximal joint () and the distal joints () are connected by a distal joint, said proximal legs () being connected pivotally and fixably relative to one another in the proximal joint () in the form of a rotary joint about a proximal joint pivot axis (P).
