Major Amputations Faqs

1. Will I be in pain after surgery?

We take postoperative pain very seriously. With the use of combined anesthesia techniques, including regional blocks, pain is usually well controlled during the first days after surgery. Our goal is to keep you as comfortable as possible throughout your recovery.

2. Why would a major amputation be necessary?

A major amputation is considered only when the limb cannot be safely preserved. This is always a difficult decision, and it is made with great care, prioritizing your safety, your overall health, and your long-term quality of life.

3. How long will I stay in the hospital?

Hospital stay is usually a few days (about three days), depending on your condition and recovery. During this time, we closely monitor your progress and support you through the early stages after surgery.

4. Will I be able to walk again?

Yes. With proper rehabilitation, physiotherapy, and the use of a prosthesis when needed, patients can regain mobility. We guide and support you through each step of this process.

5. How do you support patients after such a surgery?

Recovery does not end with the operation. We provide continuous follow-up, guidance, and coordination with rehabilitation and prosthetic teams. Our aim is to help you adapt, recover, and regain independence.
