What is Amputation and Limb Salvage Surgery?
Amputation is the surgical removal of all or part of a limb, usually as a last resort when the limb cannot be saved or poses a risk to the patient’s life. Limb salvage surgery, on the other hand, aims to preserve the limb by removing only the diseased or damaged tissue and reconstructing the remaining structures. Both approaches are used to restore function, relieve pain, and improve quality of life.
Common Causes for Amputation or Limb Salvage
Delaying treatment for severe limb injuries or infections can lead to life-threatening complications. Early evaluation by a specialist is crucial for the best possible outcome.

Most Commonly Affects

Key Symptoms
