Amputation Surgery
In certain cases, limb amputation may be the most effective way to relieve pain and restore quality of life. While the idea can feel overwhelming, many pets adapt quickly and go on to live happy, active lives once the source of discomfort is removed.
When Is Amputation Recommended?
Amputation may be recommended for:
- Severe trauma or irreparable fractures
- Bone or soft tissue tumors
- Advanced or non-responsive infections
- Congenital limb abnormalities
- Nerve damage resulting in a non-functional limb
