<p>It is not possible to distinguish in Hospital Episode Statistics between 'major'
and 'minor' amputations.</p><p> </p><p>The Health and Social Care Information Centre
(HSCIC) has calculated the England average rate of amputation per 100,000 population
and highlighted the clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) of residence having rates
more than 33% higher than the national average. There are 25 such CCGs.</p><p> </p><p>This
is not a count of people as the same person may have had more than one episode of
care within the same time period.</p><p> </p><p>We do not have information on a comparison
of rates of amputation with other European Union member states.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Clinical
