BKA ,is indicated for many reasons and i dont have to remind u of them becoz for sure u know why u doing this procedure ,the procedure is simple usually best done under general aneasthesia ,it can be done under spinal anaethesia also and u are awake ,it is done under sterile technique ,and it heals within 3-8 weeks usually leaving a stump,blunt end ,of course your knee joint is preserved so u will have many options later for artifical limb ,it has some acute and remote complications ,acute like the psychological stress ,the wound itself ,and infections ,remote most is the rehabilitationa and integrating into society and getting used to your status ,their is one thing many go through its called (phantom limb) the sensation and sometimes acting as if the leg is still there,hope helpful
