Diabetic Foot

Diabetic foot ulcers heal slowly and carry amputation risk, prompting varied research.

Studied for angiogenesis and wound healing.

Small-to-medium clinical trials report some positive findings.

Reported adverse events are mostly local — swelling, pain, or bruising at the harvest and injection sites. Infection and cell-processing quality remain the key risks to monitor.

Existing studies are limited by sample size, methodology, and follow-up, and SVF preparation differs substantially between centres, making cross-study comparison difficult.
