Partial Toe Amputation

Up to 24% of diabetic patients who suffer from a foot ulcer will end in an amputation. Diabetes is the main cause of non-traumatic lower-limb amputations, so it is important that you take care of your feet if you are diabetic. While most amputations are done in a surgery center, this patient has had multiple amputations before, and requested an immediate amputation same-day.
