Functional outcomes after borderline midfoot amputations depend on muscle function, skin graft quality, bone pressure, foot health, and patient factors. Careful consideration of these elements is crucial for successful limb salvage.

Area of Science:

  • Podiatric surgery
  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Reconstructive surgery

Context:

  • Borderline amputations at the midfoot level present complex challenges in limb salvage.
  • Evaluating functional outcomes requires a multifactorial approach.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the long-term functional results of ten borderline midfoot amputations.
  • To identify key parameters influencing functional outcomes in these cases.

Summary:

  • Functional results are influenced by muscle antagonist effects, integument quality, skin graft integration, pressure points, and bone conditions like osteoarthropathy and osteolysis.
  • Patient-specific factors such as general health, age, and activity levels significantly impact outcomes.

Impact:
