The management of the limb deficient child and its family.
The team approach is considered the optimal to the care of the limb deficient child. A coordinated programme utilising the expertise of experienced personnel and taking into consideration the developmental needs of the child will allow the child to grow and function as normally as possible. The goal of the team is to assist the patient to become a productive, self-sufficient member of society.
