. The prostheses already existing in the scope of assistive technology, and new models, started to have an extensive acquisition value, becoming laborious to be acquired. As a result of this factor, companies such as e –NABLE together with health and engineering professionals aim to manufacture low cost upper limb prostheses, through additive manufacturing. Goal. Observe the influence of a Cyborg Beast type prosthesis to assess dexterity, motor coordination and impact on quality of life, in a patient using assistive technology. Methodology. The present study was characterized as a case study of a patient with transradial congenital amputation, who through the project Mãozinhas 3D received a low-cost prosthesis, where this research had as objective through the procedures and tests reported to assess dexterity, coordination motor and quality of life. Results and discussion. It was observed that the use of the “Cyborg Beast” prosthesis was not satisfactory for the patient with congenital transradial amputation, with no expected tests being applied. However, since the patient had a lower score in the domain for emotional aspects, in the SF-36 Questionnaire, carried out before the fitting attempt, self-image is one of the great points to be developed in the construction of additive manufacturing pieces, with pleasant aesthetics and mostly functional. Conclusion. It was explained the importance of developing prosthetic models that serve this population, as well as more studies that address motor coordination, manual dexterity and quality of life.
