ABSTRACT
Management of extensive bone and soft tissue defects, which occur after severe trauma of lower extremities and always lead to an unacceptable amputation in some cases, continues to challenge reconstructive surgeons. When performing lower extremity amputation, preservation of the knee joint has been put into a higher priority. The benefit of below-knee amputation over above-knee ones concentrates on a more normal gait with less energy expenditure during ambulation when a functioning knee joint is present.
