Abstract

This study compares the efficacy of 0.01% rh-PDGF-BB with standard wound care in 20 patients with diabetes mellitus with neuropathic large plantar ulcers off-loaded with modified total contact cast. The incidence, duration and rate of healing were compared. An accelerated rate of healing in rhPDGF group was observed.
