Résumé

The use of prostheses in individuals with limb loss increases the risk of maceration, friction, and pressure-induced skin injuries due to the vulnerability of the residual limb and the close contact with the socket. Poorly fitting prostheses exacerbate these issues, especially for those with immunosuppression or vascular conditions. Skin pathologies disrupt daily prosthetic limb use and impact the independence of those with limb loss. Preventive measures, including proper prosthesis socket fitting and meticulous skin care, are crucial. This review explores residual limb-site skin pathologies and details current mitigation and management strategies.
