OBJECTIVE Hand burns are commonly seen in patients with burn injury. In the past, focus was on lifesaving measures, but with advances in burn care during the last century, the paradigm shifted to digital salvage and eventually to functional digital salvage. Good outcomes are heavily dependent on the care that is rendered during the initial management of the burn. METHODS A retrospective medic...
Background/aim: We evaluated the existing risk factors with clinical results in patients who underwent major and minor amputation of the lower extremity as a result of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Materials and methods: We retrospectively studied 107 patients who had undergone lower extremity amputation. The patients were divided into minor (Group 1, n = 75) and major (Group 2, n = 32) amputati...
AIMS To determine clinical outcomes and explore prognostic factors related to ulcer healing in people with a clinically infected diabetic foot ulcer. METHODS This multicentre, prospective, observational study reviewed participants' data at 12 months after culture of a diabetic foot ulcer requiring antibiotic therapy. From participants' notes, we obtained information on the incidence of wound ...
BACKGROUND The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) scoring system is a disease-specific instrument to determine the physical and mental health for patients with extremity sarcoma. This study aims to investigate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the MSTS, and to evaluate functional outcomes of the surgical treatment of lower extremity sarcoma using the Chinese MSTS. METHO...
OBJECTIVE To determine patient-, treatment-, and facility-level characteristics associated with receiving outpatient rehabilitation services after lower extremity amputation within the Veterans Affairs (VA) system. DESIGN Observational study. SETTING All Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs). PARTICIPANTS Veterans (N=4165) with lower extremity amputation discharged from VAMCs between O...
OBJECTIVES To evaluate prosthetic costs of pediatric lawnmower amputations; to see if reducing the incidence of pediatric lawnmower amputations could result in significant cost savings; and to consider if a cost analysis could be useful to implement more safety features (voluntarily or legislatively). DESIGN Pediatric lawnmower amputees from 1980 to 2000 were reviewed to determine age at time...
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine whether endovascular or open revascularization provides an advantageous approach to symptomatic peripheral arterial disease (PAD) over the longer term. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The optimal revascularization strategy for symptomatic lower extremity PAD is not established. METHODS We evaluated amputation-free survival, overall survival, and r...
Revision Rate and Risk Factors After Lower Extremity Amputation in Diabetic or Dysvascular Patients.
This article reports the revision rate and possible risk factors for lower extremity amputations in patients with diabetes mellitus or peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Data were collected from 421 patients with diabetes mellitus or PAD who underwent amputations of the lower extremity at the authors' institution from 2002 to 2012. There was a 25.2% overall revision rate. Mean time from amputat...
flow to heal. Diabetic neuropathic ulcers resulting from increased pressure due to osseous deformities may require a variety of podiatric surgical interventions, conservative methods to offload the area, such as total contact Partial lower limb amputation is a common outcome in the high risk patient with lower extremity chronic ulcerations, ischemia, and infection. The significant decline in th...
OBJECTIVE Infection commonly complicates diabetic foot ulcers and is associated with a poor outcome. In a cohort of individuals with an infected diabetic foot ulcer, we aimed to determine independent predictors of lower-extremity amputation and the predictive value for amputation of the International Working Group on the Diabetic Foot (IWGDF) classification system and to develop a risk score fo...
