→Explanation: Wikify "amputation".
== Explanation ==
"Mutilation" describes the detrimental, radical change of the body by external influences. The term may denote both the process and the outcome. Mutilation may be associated with loss of function or key components. The separation of a part of a body is called '[[amputation]]' (lat. amputare: 'cut off all around'). A 'part of a body' refers to a recognizable morphologically functional unit of the body segment.
