Computed tomography perfusion study evaluating the curative effect of tibial transverse transport in patients with severe diabetic foot

ConclusionThere were significant differences in relative BV, relative mean transit time, and ST between the two groups before and after surgery, and the postoperative BV in the NTF group and ST values in the two groups were increased compared with the preoperative values. The BV in the NTF group and the ST values in the two groups were effective indicators in evaluating the changes between preoperative and postoperative perfusion. These results indicate that TTT could increase plantar tissue perfusion as assessed by BV and ST; this increase was among the reasons for the surface healing of severe DF ulcers.
