Gangrene is often treated by an operation to remove the dead tissue. 1  If it's an area of tissue that can be removed, the operation is called debridement - the surgical removal of lacerated, devitalized, or contaminated tissue. If it's a leg, foot, finger, or toe that have to be removed, the operation is called an amputation - the surgical removal of an affected part of the body.
Individuals with arterial disease (atherosclerosis) or a blood clot (thrombosis) that blocks or interrupts blood supply to the toe may develop tissue death (gangrene). Amputation may also be necessary to prevent the spread of infection, bone cancer, or skin cancer. The goal for toe amputation is to remove damaged tissue and relieve pain while preserving healthy tissue and foot function.
