When doctors have to amputate a limb, what piece of equipment would they use to do the deed?


i'm guessing they wouldn't use a saw anymore but we wern't sure if they had some sort of electronic gizmo nowadays.

usually a bone saw, sometimes an electric one! why do you want to know? depends on what limb too, sometimes they just use scissors..very big and very sharp ones.

scissors and cutters

a bone saw

Why would you want to know something like that?

i can't believe you would ask that but they use bone cutters and then stitch it up....my famliy friend lost leg and is a teacher but i wudnt dare ask if something like that
