Abstract
|
|
|
|
Amputation should be considered for the patients with limb necrosis or infection due to major vessel obstruction combined with diabetes. Patients with peripheral artery occlusive disease combined with diabetes have a higher risk of amputation and a higher possibility of reoperation than those patients without diabetes because of complications that include hematoma, infection and necrosis of the stump. We report here on 2 cases for which balloon angioplasty was used to promote wound healing on the stump site during amputation, and the patients had peripheral artery occlusive disease with a diabetic foot. The wounds healed early without complication in both cases.
