abstract="Parachuting is a unique method of deploying troops. Accidents in parachuting are common, but usually carry minimal risk for severe injury. Most accidents occur during landing and injuries often affect the lower limbs and spine. Traumatic amputation of a limb is an extremely rare event in parachuting. We present a case of a parachutist who suffered a traumatic amputation of the left hand during jumping off the plane.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
