abduction boots, a pair of orthopedic casts for the lower extremities, available in both short- and long-leg configurations, with a bar incorporated at ankle level to provide hip abduction. Abduction boots are used for postoperative positioning and immobilization after hip adductor releases with total hip arthroplasty or hip prosthesis implantation. They also promote proper positioning during healing after surgical repair of the lower extremities. How to thank TFD for its existence?
