Amputation (of Leg or toe)
Amputation is performed for four reasons: arterial disease, gross injury, tumour, and developmental abnormality, all more common in the legs than in the arms. Arterial disease, arteriosclerosis (“hardening of the arteries”), often associated with diabetes, is common in the aged. Gross injury to nerves, vessels, and soft tissues and primary tumours of bone or other connective tissue usually involve relatively young individuals. Developmental abnormalities—for example, congenital false joint in the tibia—may occasion amputation in childhood.
