Am I better off with out it?: A case study of a patient having a trans-tibial amputation after 52 years of chronic lower limb ulceration and pain

This case study looks at a 71-year-old man who had 52 years of chronic lower limb pain and ulceration secondary to radiotherapy for an osteosarcoma. It discusses some issues surrounding amputation in such a case and raises early preoperative involvement by a multidisciplinary amputee rehabilitation team as a mandatory arm of management.
