What are the goals of an amputation below the knee? The goal of amputation is to remove unhealthy tissue and create a remaining leg that is less painful and more useful. Amputation can improve quality of life for many patients. A below-knee amputation (BKA) is an amputation often performed for foot and ankle problems. The BKA often leads to the use of an artificial leg that can allow a patient to walk. A BKA is performed roughly in the area between the ankle and knee.
