Considering the level of BS in various bleach loopholes, this is one of the more justifiable ones.

Except we have to take into account that they are capable of healing an arm from nothing. Not just grimjow and menoly; we also have soi fon lost her arm and she was not healed by Orihime, but by SS (according to kubo). Even if there was something about the wound that prevented it from being healed, they should be able to hack off the entire arm (beyond the infected area) and just heal it from there. If they can restore Soifon's arm from nothing, than why not Yamaji's

Sacrifice does not mean giving up something for nothing; it means giving up one thing for something else we believe is worth more
There is a "No Back-sies" rule of Sacrifice. He can't get it back. He Sacrificed it. It can't be fixed because he didn't give it up, he didn't say --"this a temporary loan. I want my arm back after this is over with" He TRADED his arm for their lives
Kubo didn't write himself into a corner ---It-was-a-SACRIFICE |
No...
The only thing that makes his action a "sacrifice" is the fact that yamaji did not take into account his arm could be healed (apparently ignoring the capbilities of his own healers) and thus took on the action with the intention that he may never be able to use his arm again. But the sacrifice becomes tainted when its clear that what was lost CAN be restored... Using a plothole to keep his arm lost does not restore the significance of the loss.
