Combined Treatment for Non-Healing Wounds in Chronic Lower Extremity Arterial Disease: A Comparative Study

Endovascular interventions, such as balloon angioplasty and stenting, are commonly used for PAD due to their proven safety and effectiveness. However, traditional treatments for chronic non-healing wounds are often insufficient. Advances in cell biotechnology, particularly fibroblast therapy, show promise for enhancing wound healing, as fibroblasts play a crucial role in tissue repair and inflammation. This study aims to develop, assess, and evaluate the safety of a combined treatment approach that incorporates fibroblast therapy with existing methods for managing chronic non-healing wounds in PAD patients.
