Functional outcome reports for people with quadrilateral amputation are not common in the rehabilitation medicine literature. The literature describing functional outcomes that does exist focuses primarily on people with a single or bilateral lower limb amputation. This case report chronicles the interventions and outcomes in a single person with amputation of all 4 limbs during an inpatient rehabilitation admission.
