An anticoagulant salt solution was forced through the foot's major arteries to flush small blood clots and other circulatory blocks. The lower ends of the two leg bones, the tibia and fibula, as well as some of the talus or anklebone, were trimmed, and two stainless-steel nails were driven up through the heel into the tibia (see diagram).
