Zusammenfassung:	We evaluated BBS and 6MWT in transfemoral amputees. There was a significant correlation between BBS score and the distance of 6MWT in participants. This finding suggested that BBS could be considered as a useful indicator in predicting successful prosthetic ambulation in transfemoral amputees. Abstract
