Small correction of a mistake I just caught: The AFOs would be used on Viktor’s LEFT leg.

> Hip-Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthotic (HKAFO)

> Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthotic (KAFO)

> Ankle-Foot Orthotic (AFO)

> Compression Sleeves and Knee Braces
Hip-Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis (HKAFO) Hip-knee-ankle-foot orthosis (HKAFOs) are complex orthoses which control the joints of the lower limb, pelvis and spine. With an HKAFO, the hip, knee and ankle are all locked or rigid, making it a static device. The HKAFO aims to provide support for the trunk and lower limbs. Patients who would use an HKAFO are typically wheelchair users and are unable to walk without these devices. HKAFOs will usually be used by people with Paraplegia, Neural-Tube Defects or, in Viktor’s case, it would be better suited for Femoral Anteversion (if that’s the path you wanna follow). As a toddler/child, Viktor would’ve probably worn a Derotation Orthosis targeting specifically the rotation of his hip due to it. Advantages: - Standing/walking; - Control of joints; - Avoids contractures; - Aids in bone density; - Weight control/fitness; Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis (KAFO) Knee-ankle-foot orthoses (KAFOs) are used for stance control. These types of orthoses are generally prescribed for the following reasons: instability of the knee, muscle weakness at the ankle / knee / hip, knee contracture, knee hyperextension, provide foot and ankle control, and to provide some hip support. KAFOs are the most likely orthotics that Viktor would use on his right leg. It’s valid to point out that the foot part goes INSIDE the shoe, not on the outside. Brands like Billy Footwear came out with adaptive shoes specifically to fit around the orthosis. There are different types of KAFOs: One-piece KAFO - No moving parts; - Straight leg in walking; - Passive device; - Typically used for contracture control or as a night splint; Jointed Non-Weight Bearing KAFOs Used for knee instability when the knee moves into flexion, hyperextension, varus or valgus. This device might be prescribed for: Post-Polio Syndrome, nerve damage, knee instability and Neural-Tube defect. Jointed Weight Bearing KAFOs Weight-bearing KAFOs are used to provide hip and knee support. They generally have locking knee joints and have an ischial seat for weight-bearing, thus accommodating weakness in the hip abductor muscles. This type of KAFO is commonly used for: Post-Polio Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy Trendelenburg gait, Neural-Tube Defect and Arthrogryposis. Ankle-Foot Orthosis (AFO) An Ankle-Foot Orthosis (AFO) is a specific type of assistive device that, as its name suggests, covers the foot and ankle. There are three main types of AFOs: flexible, rigid and jointed. Like KAFOs, there are different types of AFOs: Flexible AFOs Has a certain amount of flexibility around the ankle area. This is achieved by cutting away part of the device around the ankle, reducing the surface area. Useful for patients who have uncontrolled movement in the ankle joint with good mediolateral stability. This orthosis allows for a more natural gait pattern. Commonly used for: Foot drop (Mild to moderate), nerve injury/disfunction. Rigid AFOs A rigid AFO allows no movement. They are often used in more severe situations and in conditions with some mediolateral instability. It is commonly used for: Foot drop (severe), Brain Injury, Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Cord Injury, Nerve Damage, Muscular Dystrophy, and Instability. Jointed AFOs Made with a moving part, or joint, which hinges at the ankle joint. It is designed to allow motion at the ankle joint, but still offers the correction. Commonly used for: Foot drop (mild to moderate), Diplegic or Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy, Hypotonia, Hypertonia, Nerve Damage. It is likely that Viktor would use this orthotic (flexible or jointed) on his right leg for support and to avoid injury from compensating for his other leg. Compression Sleeves and Knee Braces What does a knee compression sleeve do? Compression knee sleeves are worn to provide warmth, increase blood flow, and enhance proprioception (joint awareness). They are primarily used to reduce swelling, alleviate mild-to-moderate knee pain, and support the joint during activities like weightlifting, running, and daily exercise. What does a knee brace do? A knee brace supports your knee and holds it in place. It keeps your knee in alignment. These braces help you to avoid putting too much stress on your knee joint. It keeps your knee from moving too far or too suddenly. How much resistance and support a brace gives depends on which type you need. Why shouldn’t you draw Viktor with these? Although knee sleeves can be useful for athletes, and knee braces are used for knee related injuries or conditions like Ehlers Danlo’s Syndrome, both of them fail to address the underlying cause of Viktor’s mobility issues — neurological spasticity, muscle imbalance, spinal curvature, muscle atrophy, etc — rather than simple joint instability. While sleeves provide compression, they do not reduce muscular spasticity or correct fixed needs. Knee braces would fail to support Viktor’s hip, ankle and foot, which also need support.

🧵|| Well, this has been quite overdue so, bellow you guys will find a thread exploring Viktor’s plausible disabilities, mobility aids and braces.

This is an expansion of a thread I had made ages ago and that now I (unfortunately) hate due to it actually lacking info.
Square image in beige tones that reads: An almost all encompassing thread on Viktor’s disabilities Note: Some images won’t have the text because it is too big, you can dm me if needed for the full texts and/or explanation for some of them.

Here’s my gift for @badseeds.bsky.social for the #JayvikHolidayExchange2025 ! They asked for a very specific job occupation in a modern AU, and what more specific than Jayvik as a medicine student and a medicine intern respectively…

A digital drawing of Jayce and Viktor from Arcane. They are both floating in the middle of space, and they are in their astral forms. They are embracing each other and smiling with tears in their eyes, and the tips of their noses are touching.
