Appropriate Strategy of Surgical Treatment in Ischemic Diabetic Foot

January 14, 2021 updated by: Hailin Xu, Peking University People's Hospital
This cohort study aims to evaluate the outcomes of appropriate surgical treatment strategies in diabetic foot ulcers with different rate of popliteal artery stenosis(<50% or ≥50%). In this study, patients with Texas university grade 2-4(stage C-D) ischemic diabetic foot ulcers will be included. Data of patients who underwent surgical treatment in the past will be retrospectively collected. The patients with follow-up time less than 12 months will continue to follow up. Also the postoperative patients will be prospectively collected. Effects of different surgical strategies, including wound healing therapy, interventional therapy and tibial transverse bone transport therapy will be measured by several indexes.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
OTHER: Rate of popliteal artery stenosis < 50%, W.
If the rate of popliteal artery stenosis of patients < 50%, the patients only receive the wound treatment.
Procedure: Wound treatment
According to the guidelines and recommendations of the International Diabetic Foot Working Group, ulcer surface debridement, negative pressure suction drainage, and routine dressing were performed until the wound healed or the end of the trial.
OTHER: Rate of popliteal artery stenosis < 50%, WT.
If the rate of popliteal artery stenosis of patients < 50%, the patients receive the wound treatment and tibial transverse transport surgery.
Procedure: Wound treatment
According to the guidelines and recommendations of the International Diabetic Foot Working Group, ulcer surface debridement, negative pressure suction drainage, and routine dressing were performed until the wound healed or the end of the trial.
Procedure: Tibial transverse transport surgery
In the anteromedial area of the proximal tibia of the affected limb, the external fixation frame was compared with the area along the midline of the medial longitudinal axis of the proximal tibia. Subsequently, two 3.0 Steinmann pins were inserted through the single layer of cortical bone. The skin was cut along the long axis with the 3.0 Steinmann pin as the centre, and the subcutaneous tissue was separate bluntly to expose the periosteum. The Steinmann pins were used as the centre point for the drilling on four sides with a 2.0 drill bit and use of a rapid osteotomy device; the length of each side was 2.5 cm. Subperiosteal osteotomy was performed with a 5-mm narrow bone knife at an angle of 15°-30° to the bone surface. The surgeons should pay attention to protect the blood supply of the periosteum during this procedure. The external fixators were fixed with 4.0 Steinmann pins at the distal and proximal ends. The subcutaneous tissue and skin were sutured.
OTHER: Rate of popliteal artery stenosis ≥ 50%, WV.
If the rate of popliteal artery stenosis of patients ≥ 50%, the patients receive the wound treatment and vascular intervention surgery.
Procedure: Wound treatment
According to the guidelines and recommendations of the International Diabetic Foot Working Group, ulcer surface debridement, negative pressure suction drainage, and routine dressing were performed until the wound healed or the end of the trial.
Procedure: Vascular intervention surgery
Segmented distal angiography under the guidance of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) were perform after local anesthesia. The superficial artery is expanded by a 3-4 mm balloon.
