Abstract: When severe diabetic foot gangrene occurs, the surgical incision is often difficult to heal due to poor blood supply of distal limbs and severe local infection. The method of moist?expose?burn?ointment? (MEBO) combined with vacuum sealing drainage was applied to the wound of diabetic foot after amputation. The wound of 8 patients with diabetic foot after amputation was completely healed, the wound was repaired well, and the length of limb was retained to a large extent, and the function of affected limb was restored well.
