LONG TERM EFFECTS OF PROSTHESES ON STUMP IN LOWER LIMB AMPUTEES: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF 100 CASES.

P S Bhandari1, S K Jain2.   

Abstract

One hundred lower limb amputees wearing prostheses for more than 5 years were studied and long terms effects on stumps were noted. Common changes were tissue destruction, tissue proliferation, contact dermatitis, circulatory changes, recurrent folliculitis, bursa formation, and eczematous changes. Out of 100 stumps examined long terms changes were observed in 25 stumps.
