Amputation is required in cases of necrosis of the limb, malignant tumors, severe trauma, infection (such as in cases where life is at risk due to gas gangrene, or when pus continues to be discharged from chronic, intractable purulent osteomyelitis), or deformity. *Some of the terminology that refers to "joint disarticulation surgery" is listed below.
