  • Covering of diabetic foot ulcers with local flaps : a review of the literature
    Emeršič, Luka ; Stritar, Albin, zdravnik
    Diabetes is a severe chronic disease that affects about 415 million people globally. The most common complication of diabetes is diabetic foot ulceration, which increases the risk of lower leg ... amputation by a factor of 8. A multidisciplinary approach to limbsparing has been developed to avoid such catastrophic consequences. The purpose of this review article was to present the possible surgical reconstructive options for covering diabetic foot ulcers with local flaps. Many different reconstructive modalities are described in the literature and are based on the complexity and size of the defect and comorbidities of the patient. Local flaps, exceptionally muscle flaps, provide a good, vascularized tissue cover and produce a lower 5-year mortality rate and economic cost than limb amputation.
