Fully Synthetic Bioengineered Nanomedical Scaffold in Chronic Neuropathic Foot Ulcers.

CONCLUSIONS: The nanomedical scaffold successfully reduced the ulcer depths, stimulated granulation tissue while preventing necrosis, and helped the wounds remain infection free. The outcome of this case series suggests a fully synthetic bioengineered nanomedical scaffold can be used as an alternative to human or animal extracellular matrix in chronic, hard-to-heal neuropathic ulcers.
