Diabetic foot ulcers are a challenging problem for patients and surgeons because successful healing requires strict medical compliance, intensive local wound care, minimization of contributing factors, and frequent operative debridements and reconstructions. We present the case of a diabetic male cardiac patient with a trophic ulcer on the amputation stump of the second toe of the right foot treated with tarsal tunnel release and autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMNC) implantation.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers are a challenging problem for patients and surgeons because successful healing requires strict medical compliance, intensive local wound care, minimization of contributing factors, and frequent operative debridements and reconstructions. We present the case of a diabetic male cardiac patient with a trophic ulcer on the amputation stump of the second toe of the right foot treated with tarsal tunnel release and autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMNC) implantation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
