Background: The management of diabetic foot infections (DFIs) is a complex multidisciplinary process and often necessitates surgical interventions. Unfortunately, amputations such as single or multiple toes amputations (MTA) or full transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) are often the unavoidable solution. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of TMA versus MTA in managing non-ischemic diabetic foot infections.

: Minimally invasive distal metatarsal osteotomy (DMMO) has established itself as an effective surgical technique for the treatment of metatarsalgia, notable for its reduced postoperative pain and faster recovery. However, doubts remain regarding the frequency and nature of postoperative complications. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the incidence of the most frequent complications associated with the DMMO technique, including prolonged edema, delayed bone healing, transfer metatarsalgia, floating toe, and persistent pain.

Objective: To compare measurements of skin perfusion pressure (SPP) and transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO) to predict postamputation wound healing according to amputation level.
Methods: This study was conducted as a prospective two-centre, head-to-head study.
Results: Fifty-two patients had SPP, TcPO measured (below and above the knee), and toe and ankle blood pressure measurements taken before major amputation.

Objective: A number of treatments have been developed to treat hard-to-heal (chronic) diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This case series the use of ON101-a new topical macrophage regulatory cream for the treatment of DFUs, that helped achieve limb-salvage outcomes with an adequate safety profile.
Method: Patients with hard-to-heal DFUs-primarily on the toes and plantar surfaces-were enrolled in the study.

Objective: To verify the utility and accuracy of periwound regional oxygen saturation (rSO) as a wound healing predictor of toes in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI), and compare the results with skin perfusion pressure (SPP) measurements.
Method: Patients with hard-to-heal (chronic) toe wounds and CLTI, and who had undergone toe rSO (near wound), forefoot rSO and SPP measurements, were retrospectively selected. Following the measurements, the patients were treated conservatively, and the progress of wound healing was evaluated 28-91 days after the rSO/SPP measurements.
