Successful Revision Surgery: For Above-knee Amputated Leg Infected with Multiple Microorganisms [PDF]
Amputation of lower extremity is one of the oldest surgical procedures. Amputated limb with ideal stump has excellent results, whereas bad stumps prolong the prostheses fitting and rehabilitation. Revision amputations are commonly indicated in poor stump
