Abstract:Reconstructive surgeons face challenges when considering limb salvage methods for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). In this article, we present our experience with autologous fat grafting as a viable alternative in cases where flap reconstruction is difficult. We encountered a 78-year-old female patient with a non-healing DFU who had multiple comorbidities, including renal failure and severe peripheral arterial disease (PAD). During the initial multidisciplinary meeting, due to extensive necrosis a… Show more
