text: In a research study of 8 patients who had gone through partial foot amputations with diabetes and a cohort of matched non-amputee control patients, Dillon and Barker report that amputations distal to the metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) had little impact on the typical pattern of ankle power generation.3 Distal amputations are preferred to proximal amputations as they protect length and therefore regular biomechanics of the foot.
text: In a study of eight patients who had undergone partial foot amputations and a cohort of matched non-amputee control patients, Dillon and Barker report that amputations distal to the metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) had little impact on the normal pattern of ankle power generation.3 Distal amputations are preferred to proximal amputations as they preserve length and therefore normal biomechanics of the foot.
