Regarding “Through-knee amputation in patients with peripheral arterial disease: A review of 50 cases”  Jonathan D. Beard, ChM, Med, FRCS  Journal of Vascular Surgery  Volume 49, Issue 3, (March 2009) DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2008.10.072 Copyright © 2009 Terms and Conditions

Fig Gritti-Stokes amputation. The anterior and posterior skin flaps are based on the tibial tuberosity and popliteal skin crease respectively. The articular surface of the patella is removed and the femur immediately above the articular surface transected with a 45-degree backward angle to lock the patella. The patella tendon is then sutured to the hamstring tendons. Journal of Vascular Surgery 2009 49, DOI: (10.1016/j.jvs.2008.10.072) Copyright © 2009 Terms and Conditions
