Long-term Follow-up of treatment of chronic foot wounds with recombinant human epidermal growth factor in patients with different complications of diabetes mellitus

BACKGROUND: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a dangerous complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), which can lead to the development of chronic wounds and amputations. Recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) can be used as an adjuvant treatment for chronic wounds resistant to standard treatment....
