Abstract: An apparatus suspends a post-amputation residuum protection device for a below the knee amputation. The suspending apparatus comprises an elongated arcuate first shell defining an open interior channel. The first shell is adapted to receive at least a portion of the residuum and the residuum protection device into the interior channel. A flexible second shell includes a circumferential wedge extending radially inwardly from a portion of an inner surface. The second shell is configured to be received within the first shell and adapted to cover the residuum adjacent to the knee. The wedge is adapted to bear against the residuum above the medial femoral condyle such that the wedge is received in the supracondylar space for suspending the residuum protection device.
