PECULIARITIES OF PERFORMING ORGAN-SAVING AMPUTATION OF THE FOOT COMBINED WITH OZONE THERAPY, LOCAL APPLICATION OF AUTOLOGOUS PLATELET-RICH PLASMA AND VACUUM SANATION OF POSTOPERATIVE WOUND IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC-GANGRENOUS FORM OF DIABETIC FOOT SYNDROM

A positive result of treatment of patients suffering from ischemic-gangrenous form ofdiabetic foot syndrome (DFS) becomes possible with an optimal choice of surgery,effective renewal of blood supply and active stimulation of tissue restoration processon the cellular level.Objective – to study efficiency of the suggested organ-saving variant of surgery combinedwith the use of a complex of auxiliary factors of a reparative process activation in thewound including regional ozone therapy, vacuum sanitation and local application ofautologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP).Material and methods. The treatment of 210 patients with ischemic-gangrenous formof diabetic foot syndrome was carried out from 2017 to 2020. The efficiency of one ofthe variants of organ-saving operative intervention was studied. In the control group -104 (49.52%), the treatment was carried out in accordance with the standard scheme.In the main group (106 patients - 50.47%), in addition to the standard scheme, regionalozone therapy, vacuum sanitation and local application of autologous-rich plasma(PRP) were carried out.Results. These measures reduced the period of treatment of patients in the hospital to24 ± 1.2 days in the main group compared to 37 ± 2, 4 in the control one. 2 years later, patients of the main group confirmed the formation of a foot stumpfunctionally adapted for walking with angular dislocation of fragments of the cuboidand scaphoid bones.Conclusions. The suggested modification of the organ-saving and partial foot amputationin patients with IV degree of ischemia and DFS is indicative of a possibility to performsuch kind of surgery as a variant of choice for patients with ischemic-gangrenousform of diabetic foot syndrome. The complex of auxiliary measures (regional ozonetherapy, vacuum sanitation and local administration of autologous platelet-rich plasma(APRP)), activates a reparative process of healing of a chronic foot wound whichenables to make the period of hospital staying for patients shorter – to 24±1,2 days inthe main group as compared to 37±2,4 days in the control one. Clinical observation ofa remote postoperative period (2 years later) confirms a possibility to form a foot stumpfunctionally adapted for walking with angular dislocation of fragments of the cuboidand scaphoid bones, functionally advantageous for supporting load.
