The trial will be carried out in Peking University People's Hospital. The whole trial will last 3 years. Amputees from orthopedics and vascular surgery will be distributed into two groups randomly and receive different treatments including traditional resection and regenerative peripheral nerve interface(RPNI) surgery.The pain outcome,the impact of post-amputation pain on life and the utilization rate of prostheses will be collected to study the efficacy, safety and prognosis of preventive regenerative peripheral nerve interface reconstruction in amputees. Investigators believe that RPNI can effectively reduce the incidence of post-amputation pain, reduce the degree of pain, improve the wearing rate of prostheses, and help patients return to normal life.
