He was the first amputee to ever run in the Games. Pistorius was, as his website says, born "without the fibula, the long, slender bone running along the outside of the leg from below the knee joint and down to the ankle, in each of his legs. His parents, Henk and Sheila, consulted with some of the leading doctors in the world before making the heart-wrenching decision to have his legs amputated below the knee by South African orthopedic surgeon Dr Gerry Versveld." .
How did pistorious lose his legs?
He was born without the fibula bone in each leg. The main bone, which includes the shin, is the tibia; he had those. But, although the fibula is less crucial for support - it runs alongside the tibia and is smaller - its end forms half of the ankle joint. He would not have been able to walk, so his doctors recommended the legs be amputated before he got used to them and thus missed them, and before they got banged up and infected from dragging them around as he learned to crawl. Seems it was the right decision in his case!
