There are many varied reasons for leg amputations. They include vascular disease, results of injuries, malignant tumours, infections, congenital malformation and accidents. By far the majority (80 %) are attributable to circulatory disorders of the arteries. Concomitant disease such as diabetes and high blood pressure as well as factors such as nicotine use, overweight and age, also play a part.
