They said foot, leg and hip. Sounds like a hemipelvectomy to me and she walks like a HP also. Too bad they are fitting her with a microprocessor controlled knee. It is much heavier than a four bar linkage knee and has one too few sensors to really help a pelvic level amputee. Glad she is walking.

Yeah, that's an hemipelvectomy because of the extremely high amputation.
She's a real beauty.
