ABSTRACT
A case report is presented that demonstrates the successful rehabilitation of an 84-year-old woman who had undergone successive surgical procedures resulting in bilateral total hip replacement and bilateral prostheses for below-knee amputations, i.e., quadriprostheses. It is emphasized that age per se should not be a deterrent to energetic rehabilitation efforts.
