Successful Management of Diabetic Foot Ulcer Complicated by Osteomyelitis Using Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy: A Case Report
The study highlights PRP's potential in DFU treatment due to its regenerative properties despite the risk of adverse effects. The efficacy of PRP aligns with previous studies, showing improved healing rates and infection control. Future research should focus on large-scale trials to optimize PRP protocols and confirm the safety and efficacy of this therapeutic method in DFU.
