Healing of Diabetic Neuroischemic Foot Wounds With vs Without Wound-Targeted Revascularization: Preliminary Observations From an 8-Year Prospective Dual-Center Registry.

To assess the clinical efficacy of endovascular angiosome-oriented wound-targeted revascularization (WTR) vs indirect (wound-indifferent) revascularization (IR) in diabetic patients with neuroischemic foot ulcers. Between April 2009 and July 2017, 167 diabetic patients (mean age 72.8 years; 137 men) with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (Rutherford category 5) and foot wounds (Wagner 2-4) in 194 limbs were prospectively registered and scheduled for primary infragenicular endovascular treatment.
