Improving Methods of Complex Surgical Treatment of Diabetic Foot Syndrome

The use of long-term intra-arterial perfusions of L-arginine in complex treatment of patients with purulent-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome with ischemia of the lower extremities led to a sharp decrease in the number of cases of progression of the pathological process and ischemia in the foot, which was observed in only 10.2% of patients at that time they were an order of magnitude higher and amounted to 30.7% in patients without the use of this method of complex treatment. Mortality in treated patients was 4.54% and 13.18%, respectively.
