The evidence about the clinical efficacy of lower limb prostheses, especially regarding fall risk, is scant. Here we present some findings from a retrospective study conducted on the archive of a large centre for prosthesis fitting and rehabilitation. Fall risk is analysed on transfemoral amputees in relation to their clinical profile and their prosthetic knees
