The associated lower-extremity fractures can be a setback in individuals with an SCI, which can always pose a threat in achieving standing balance and gait training [8, 9] . The objective of this case report is to present a low-cost rehabilitation strategy that can be performed without loading the fractured lower limbs and help achieve functional goals. Although the Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation Evidence guidelines indicate that standing in a tilt table or in the parallel bars is a recommended therapy at the end of 4-6 weeks [13] , this is to be done only if the individual does not have an associated lower limb fracture. Conclusion "K-ing strategy" may be useful for progression to ambulation in SCI patients associated with foot and ankle fractures. ./cache/cord-012607-bvxbzgx3.txt ./txt/cord-012607-bvxbzgx3.txt
