They do that basically to re-purpose the ankle joint as the knee joint for use with a prosthetic leg. The leg is turned so the joint bends the right way. |

seems like a happy kid for someone that doesn't look like they know if they're coming or going. |

When they have to take the middle of the leg, they often do this, so that the amputee's ankle can act as a "knee" of sorts with a prosthetic lower limb. Makes sense; looks really weird. |

It is real, the poor kid had cancer or something... and the former foot acts as a knee. |

Not a shop. Dugan Smith isn't shy about showing off his backwards leg. After his right leg was amputated above the knee due to cancer, his doctors were able to remove the malignancy and reattach the remainder of his leg backward so his ankle could function as a knee. |
