DOI: 10.1111/aas.13440
Abstract: Post‐operative pain after an above‐knee amputation is often severe, and in the elderly patients the adverse effects of post‐operative opioids are evident. We hypothesized that continuous perineural local anesthetic infusion (CPI) combined to a wound… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/15385744231173193
Abstract: BACKGROUND Primary above-knee amputation (AKA) may at times be the only option for unsalvageable acute lower limb ischemia. However, occlusion of the femoral arteries may result in poor inflow and contribute to wound complications such… read more here.
