Abstract:
The announcement of a diagnosis is a difficult art. All the more so when it affects the patient's integrity, as is the case with a post-traumatic amputation. As part of the multidisciplinary support provided both prior to as well as after the procedure, the psychologist or psychiatrist has a specific role to play in ensuring the patient's future psychological rehabilitation.
