A below the knee amputation (BKA) is amputation that involves removing the foot, ankle joint, distal tibia, fibula, and corresponding soft tissue structures.

Orthopedic surgeons are specialized to do below knee amputation surgery.
An incision will be made in your leg below the knee and then the part of your knee will be removed and the calf bone will be made smooth. The flap made of muscle, tissue and skin may be used to cover the bone end and the tissue for the flap may be taken from other parts of the legs or foot. If the leg was infected before, then no stitches or staples will be kept to close it and the incision will be left open for few days after surgery. If there are no infection then the flap will be closed with stitches. A soft or hard bandage will be put over your residual limb.
After your below knee amputation you can easily be able to walk with crutches after surgery , patients are allowed to se hand free crutch for two or more week after surgery which makes them to use both legs rather than laying on crutches or wheelchair.
Life amputation after below knee amputation surgery is less than three years and if the problems are not treated, the survival rate can be predicted by the duration of insulin, age, sex and renal insufficiency disease.
The wound should heal in four to eight weeks but the long term recovery will include exercises to improve the muscle strength.
Stitches are removed after one month of the surgery and a drain will be placed for collecting extra fluid.
After your knee amputation surgery you will feel the part of the leg which is amputated and drains will be put into your skin for draining fluid near your incision and the drains are taken out when the incision stops draining.
After the surgery you may bleed sometimes more than expected the blood may be collected under the skin to form a lump called hematoma which may be drained to prevent infection and it may be difficult for wound to heal.
