Dr. Shishira S. Ranade | Dr. B. J. Sharath Chandra | Dr. P. B. Thrishuli
Abstract: The basic etiology of neuropathic diabetic foot wounds involves pressure in conjunction with cycles of repetitive stress, leading to failure of skin and soft tissue integrity. The central tenet of any treatment plan addressing neuropathic diabetic foot wounds is the appropriate debridement of nonviable tissue coupled with adequate pressure relief (off-loading).
