A Clinical and Histological Analysis of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Amputation

Patients undergoing semi-elective lower extremity major amputation from complications associated with atherosclerotic limb ischemia will received intra-muscular injections of allogeneic Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in the leg above and below the point of amputation to prevent ischemic wound complications after surgery and decrease the incidence of revision and further amputation. Cohort Groups 1-4 will serve as controls.
