Abstract:

Aim We aim to compare the outcome of diabetic patients with gangrenous toes who were managed initially either by digital amputation or by transmetatarsal amputation. The null hypothesis is that transmetatarsal amputation had less theatre trips and better healing. Materials and Methods A parallel observational comparative study of all diabetic patients who underwent either digital or transmetatarsal amputation in a tertiary referral center from 2002 through 2015. Comorbid conditions, subsequent amputations, hospital stay, and readmission were noted. Results A total of 223 patients underwent min

Abstract:

Category: Diabetes Introduction/Purpose: Despite the presence of several studies examining the conversion from transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) to a more proximal amputation, few studies identified the possible predictors of failure. The objective of this study is to examine the rate of conversion of transmetatarsal amputation to below or above knee amputation, and to identify the risk factors for conversion. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed examining 71 transmetatarsal amputations performed by a single group of foot and ankle subspecialists within a single specialty group b

Abstract:

To assess the outcome of transmetatarsal amputations of the foot, data were analyzed for all transmetatarsal and midfoot amputations performed at the Lebanon Veterans Health Administration Medical Center for the period 1984 to 1990. During this 6-year period, 42 consecutive transmetatarsal and midfoot amputations were performed on 39 patients. Patient demographics, factors leading to amputation, level of amputation, outcome, function, and long-term complications were analyzed. Overall healing rate was 83.3%, with an average length of hospital stay of 35.7 days (range 3 to 96 days). Average fol

Abstract:

In March 1949, McKittrick described the use of the transmetatarsal amputation for the diabetic foot, along with specific indications. Infection, ischemia, and neuropathic ulcerations of the toes and forefoot were all treated with this procedure. In the past 30 years, however, advances in the management of these problems have led to a decrease in the number of transmetatarsal amputations performed at the New England Deaconess Hospital. With these advances, the current approach to the transmetatarsal amputation has changed, leading to significant modifications in the basic indications for this p

Abstract:

The transmetatarsal amputation has been performed for over 40 years as a limb salvage procedure, in diabetic patients with nonhealing ulcerations or nonreconstructible ischemia. It is generally believed that the transmetatarsal amputation provides a better walking extremity than a more proximal amputation and is more energy efficient. A review of the literature reveals little regarding the biomechanics of the "short foot." The authors will review the functions of the myofascial structures in both the normal foot and the transmetatarsal amputation and discuss the influence of mechanics on trans

Abstract:

The objective of this study is to determine the predictors of healing after transmetatarsal amputations (TMA) and factors leading to a higher level of amputation. A total of 33 TMA was performed in 31 patients during the 5 years between January 2000 and Jul 2005. All patients were men between the ages of 44 and 82 years (mean, 68 years). The mean follow-up period was 36 months (range, 1–65 months). Twelve (40%) TMA required a subsequent higher level of amputation. Seventeen (57%) TMA were successful. The average time until further proximal amputation after TMA was 3.5 months. Risk factors for

Abstract:

From 1982 to 1991, 17 patients underwent a lower extremity arterial bypass to salvage an ischemic transmetatarsal amputation at the New England Deaconess Hospital. Eleven patients were male, and 16 had diabetes for an average of 29 years. The mean age was 71 years. Twelve patients presented with an ischemic ulcer, one had rest pain, and four underwent bypass for failure to heal a transmetatarsal amputation. Twelve patients presented with findings of secondary infection. All 17 patients underwent successful lower extremity bypass procedures to a variety of outflow vessels. Thirteen bypasses wer

Abstract:

Relevance The number of amputations performed on patients with diabetic foot syndrome is increasing all over the world. Almost half of these operations are the so-called “minor amputations” carried out within the foot. The high recurrence rate of neuropathic ulcers, impaired biomechanics, and a decrease in the quality of life of patients after these surgeries encourage the study of this problem and the search for possible treatment options due to the capabilities of surgical treatment for post-amputation foot deformities.Aim of study To evaluate the nature of surgical interventions for post-am

Abstract:

While the transmetatarsal amputation has resulted in the salvage of numerous diabetic limbs, it remains an ablative procedure with both short- and long-term complications. The authors reviewed their experience with the panmetatarsal head resection as an alternative to the transmetatarsal amputation. A retrospective review was performed of all patients having undergone this procedure between May 1986 and November 1991. Thirty-seven procedures were performed; of these, 34 were evaluated. The average follow-up period was 20.9 months. Thirty-two feet showed primary healing while one showed delayed

Abstract:

Data from 37 patients who underwent a transmetatarsal amputation from January 1993 to April 1996 were reviewed. The mean age and diabetes duration of the subjects were 54.9 (± 13.2) years and 16.6 (± 8.9) years, respectively. The follow-up period averaged 42.1 (± 11.2) months. At the time of follow-up, 29 (78.4%) of the 37 patients still had foot salvage, 8 (21.6%) had progressed to below-the-knee amputation, and 15 (40.5%) had undergone lower-extremity revascularization. Twelve (80%) of the 15 revascularized patients preserved their transmetatarsal amputation level at a follow-up of 36.4 mont

Abstract:

The amputation is represented by the deliberate surgical removal of a limb, limb segment, or body part. From an etiological point of view, the amputations are caused by chronic vascular diseases, diabetes, tumors and trauma. At the lower limbs, the amputation can be performed at the following levels: finger amputation, transmetatarsal amputation, Lisfranc amputation, Chopart amputation, Syme amputation, transtibial amputation, rotationplasty, knee disarticulation, transfemoral amputation, hip disarticulation and hemipelvectomy. The level of the amputation is determined by factors such as: at t
