Abstract:
Diabetic foot wounds should be treated in a timely fashion to prevent infection and potential limb loss. When local wound care and traditional off-loading fails, surgeons may consider local random flaps for definitive closure. Wound size, location, and type are characteristics that should be considered for selection of the best flap. This article reviews the application of local random flaps in the treatment of diabetic foot wounds.
