A couple of questions:
1. Is it a blunt trauma/ crushing transection?
2. Does this method work on any extremities or limited to, say, phalanges?
3. Do these 2 items ligate the vein and artery? Or do the 2 items simply
refer to the removal of the appendage?
4. I'm also assuming that, like all field amputations, this is a 'stop-gap'
procedure and will require additional surgery.

Is a vice one of the items by chance?

ps. I really appreciate you putting these on here. I have always enjoyed reviewing your case studies. Thank you very much for this.
