Patient outcomes improve when amputation surgery is performed as a reconstructive procedure and with future prosthetic use in mind. Patients with problematic residual limbs require more prosthetic and medical care and often fail to achieve their rehabilitation potential. Presenters will discuss amputation techniques, revisions, how surgery influences prosthetic fittings, and ways to improve outcomes including the new Ewing Amputation technique.
