Sulodexide for limb salvage in refractory diabetic foot ulcer with arteriosclerosis obliterans: a case report

This case report suggests that highly selected DFU patients unresponsive to standard therapies including successful revascularization, Sulodexide may be a plausible salvage or adjunctive therapeutic option. This observation is strictly hypothesis-generating and its potential role warrants investigation in future prospective clinical trials.
