A 14-year-old girl with a congenitally deformed and shortened right leg and foot is described. The patient could not bear weight on the deformed limb and had to hop on the left leg. The deformed foot faced backwards and had nine toes. The right leg was shorter than the left by 26 centimetres. Radiologically, the lower end of the right femur was ill-developed and there was no knee joint. There were two fibulae and the tibia and the patella were absent. A through-knee disarticulation was done and a prosthesis fitted later. The amputated leg and foot were dissected. Many of the muscles in the leg and foot were duplicated. There were two calcanei, one talus, one navicular, two cuboids and four cuneiforms. Ther were nine metatarsals, and all the toes had three phalanges except for one which had two.
