BACKGROUND
Limb loss occurs due to different causes and has been increased in many countries. It has without exception, great economic, psychological and social impacts.
OBJECTIVES
This study assesses the demographics of amputees in one city of Iran.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
This retrospective study was undertaken on all of the amputees between April 2002 and December 2011. Patients' demographics including age, sex, the amputated limb, etiology of limb loss and level of amputation were recorded.
RESULTS
We had 216 patients in the study. The average number of amputations was 21.6 per year and varied from 14 to 32. The mean age of amputation was 39.26± 12.6 years. Of the patients, 172 were male (79.62%) and 44 female (20.37%); 119 of the amputations (55.09 %) were major and 97 minor (44.9 %). The most common cause of amputation was trauma and the most common was the toe. In trauma patients the mean age was 38.12± 10.25 years and 98 (83.7%) were male.
CONCLUSIONS
In contrast to similar studies in developed countries, trauma was found to be the major cause of all types of amputations. Results of this study may be used in prevention planning.
背景
肢体缺失由不同原因导致，且在许多国家呈上升趋势。毫无例外，它会产生巨大的经济、心理和社会影响。
目的
本研究评估伊朗一个城市截肢者的人口统计学特征。
患者与方法
本回顾性研究针对2002年4月至2011年12月期间所有截肢者展开。记录患者的人口统计学特征，包括年龄、性别、截肢肢体、肢体缺失病因及截肢水平。
结果
本研究中有216名患者。截肢的平均数量为每年21.6例，范围在14至32例之间。截肢的平均年龄为39.26±12.6岁。患者中，男性172例（79.62%），女性44例（20.37%）；119例截肢（55.09%）为大截肢，97例为小截肢（44.9%）。截肢最常见的原因是创伤，最常截肢的部位是脚趾。创伤患者的平均年龄为38.12±10.25岁，98例（83.7%）为男性。
结论
与发达国家的类似研究不同，创伤被发现是所有类型截肢的主要原因。本研究结果可用于预防规划。
