Myoelectric prosthesis: a potential emerging therapeutic in restoring function post-arm amputation complicated by necrotizing fasciitis
A literature search confirmed no previous cases of an arm amputation secondary to necrotizing fasciitis (NF) being successfully treated with a myoelectric prosthesis. This report explores a case of a 55-year-old right-handed male with flexor tenosynovitis infection of the hand after a small lacerati...
