The girl probably had bone cancer. They saved what they could of the leg and reattached it permanently assuming the transplant works. Now she will be placed in a prosthesis more easily with her ankle joint working as the knee.

The doctors must have some kind of up side down leg fetish. Why would they not put it on right...

It's called a tibial rotation-plasty, the procedure is sometimes called the Van Ness Procedure. It's generally used to treat Osteosarcomas, although it's been used in other instances to preserve some form of a "knee." The heel is also designed to bear weight and shock whereas the middle of a long bone is not.

It's one of the few medical procedures that makes me go
