Amputations
Amputation is a surgical procedure to remove a severely damaged, infected, or non-functional limb or part of a limb. It is performed when limb preservation is not possible and is essential to save life, control infection, or relieve severe pain.
When is Amputation Required?
Amputation may be necessary in cases of:
-
Severe trauma or crush injuries
-
Advanced diabetic foot complications
-
Peripheral vascular disease and gangrene
-
Severe infections or non-healing ulcers
-
Bone and soft tissue tumors
-
Congenital limb deformities (selected cases)
Types of Amputations Performed

Upper limb amputations
-
Lower limb amputations
-
Partial (toe, finger) amputations

Major amputations (below-knee, above-knee, forearm, arm)
Surgical Approach
Each procedure is carefully planned to preserve maximum healthy tissue, ensure proper wound healing, and prepare the limb for future rehabilitation or prosthetic fitting.
Post-Surgery Care & Rehabilitation
Post-operative care includes pain management, wound care, infection prevention, and early rehabilitation support. Patients are guided through physiotherapy and prosthetic options to restore mobility and independence.
