What do hospitals do with amputated limbs?

In general, amputated limbs are disposed of along with the rest of the hospital's bio-hazardous waste (by a special contractor who takes the waste to be incinerated). However, in special cases (generally involving religious beliefs) a person can ask to have their body part preserved and returned to them, presumably to be buried separately or along with the rest of their body at death.

I suppose they dispose of them. I'm not sure. But I do know that once a limb is detached from your body, it belongs to the government, not yourself :P. Oh, and that was a crazy rumour, Michael didn't want to buy the elephant man's bones. Watch the Oprah interview, he laughs at it and asks 'what would I do with bones?'

They are sent to a surgical pathology laboratory for analysis. I remember seeing a whole leg, from the hip down, in the fridge at a lab i used to work at. EVERYTHING they take out of or off of a patient ends up at the lab first, we even had umbrellas (don't ask, you really don't wanna know where it was removed from)

Dispose of them in Bio-hazard waste.

They burn them because amputated limbs usually gather and make a zombie which would be bad for everyone not expecting it.

All hospitals have places that they can burn body parts.

they either dispose of them, take specific parts of them, or sell them to other hospitals for research

they either burn them or destroy them in some way

Attach them to dead men walking perhaps? :)
