Amputation

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A man who has had both arms amputated

Amputation is the act of cutting off a part of the human body, sometimes because of medical reasons. In some countries, amputation of the hands, feet or other body parts was used as a form of punishment for people who committed crimes. A person who has had an arm or leg removed is known as an amputee.
