In summary, the impact and value of esthetic prostheses on amputee rehabilitation and their long-term use were demonstrated in this study to have no correlation with the severity of injury and level of amputation. All patients with traumatic amputation should be given equal opportunity to receive prostheses if the service is readily available. Whether use of prostheses is temporary or long-term, they help patients cope with the traumatic life experience of limb loss. |
