Below Knee Amputation

Below knee amputation is a surgical procedure in which the leg is removed below the knee joint due to severe infection, gangrene, trauma, or advanced vascular disease. It is commonly performed in patients with uncontrolled diabetes or poor blood circulation when the lower part of the leg cannot be saved. This procedure aims to remove the diseased tissue while preserving the knee joint, which helps in better mobility and easier rehabilitation with a prosthetic limb. Early and timely intervention can be life-saving and prevent the spread of infection.

When is Below Knee Amputation Required?

Below knee amputation is considered when the damage to the lower leg is extensive and other treatments are not effective.

  • Severe infection or gangrene that has spread beyond the foot and cannot be controlled
  • Non-healing wounds or ulcers with extensive tissue damage
  • Critical loss of blood supply (ischemia) making the limb non-viable
  • To prevent life-threatening complications due to spreading infection
