Summary

This is a report of physical therapy for a patient who had bilateral knee replacement and neck fracture. Although the patient underwent a total of five surgeries, she was able to walk as a result of her efforts in preoperative training, training using muscle setting combined with voice feedback, and gait training. It is thought that the knee revision reduced pain and increased motivation as the patient was able to walk.
