Amputation injuries involve the removal of one or more body parts, such as a digit or limb. An amputation can be surgical or traumatic. Traumatic amputations occur when digits or limbs are removed in an accident, such as a leg getting cut off due to an accident with heavy machinery. Surgical amputations occur when the limb is removed because the limb cannot be restored or it must be removed to save the accident victim’s life.
