Outcomes of Diabetic Toe Amputation With Versus Without Metatarsal Head Resection for Single Ray Wet Gangrene: A Preliminary Study

This study showed high complications after toe amputation for diabetic digital wet gangrene, with a trend for higher frequency of complications after TA-MHR compared to TA-MTPJ. For any type of amputation required for toe wet gangrene, it is likely that a more proximal level of index amputation is required.

Abstract

This study showed high complications after toe amputation for diabetic digital wet gangrene, with a trend for higher frequency of complications after TA-MHR compared to TA-MTPJ. For any type of amputation required for toe wet gangrene, it is likely that a more proximal level of index amputation is required.
