41 knee disarticulations in patients with gangrene due to periphere vascular disease were performed using a myocutaneous flap of the gastrocnemius muscle as described by Klaes and Eigler in 1985. In many cases disarticulation was preceeded by reconstructive vascular procedures or amputation at a lower level. Primary healing of the stump was achieved in 80% of the cases. 29% of the patients were able to walk with the aid of a prosthesis.
