[Harry Potter] What if Dumbledore amputated his arm?

In Book 6 Dumbledore gets cursed by Gaunt's Ring. But the curse was contained in his hand. Couldn't he have removed his hand? Would that have saved his life?

It's a magical curse, it doesn't have to give a F about infection vectors or whatnot, for all we know amputating the hand it was contained in would let the curse loose to kill him, or explode, or the disembodied hand would immediately strangle him, or kill the person doing the amputation before killing him.  

Tom may have been many things but he was certainly not someone to halfass a murder.
