Summary

Amputation is the loss or removal of a body part such as an arm or leg. It is the last option in trauma treatment and irreversible procedure. Amputation rehabilitation begins in the pre-amputation period. The goal of rehabilitation after an amputation is to help the patient return to the highest level of function and independence possible, while improving the overall quality of life. Many factors can affect the success of lower limb amputation rehabilitation, and stump length is one of them. A sufficient stump length provides a large contact surface and increases the stability of the socket unit.
