  • Effect of transverse tibial bone transport on expression of serum angiogenesis-related growth factors

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of transverse tibial bone transport on the expression of angiogenesis-related growth factors in the serum of diabetic foot patients.MethodsBetween January 2018 and December 2018, 10 patients who suffered from diabetes mellitus accompanied with Wagner stage 4 diabetic foot underwent transverse tibial bone transport. There were 5 males and 5 females with an average age of 59.2 years (range, 51-70 years). The duration of diabetes was 2-60 months, with an average of 24.2 months. The duration of diabetic foot was 30-120 days, with an average of 54.1 days. Peripheral venous blood was taken at 1 day before operation and at 1, 4, 11, 18, 28, and 35 days after operation. The serum was centrifuged and subjected to ELISA test to detect the expression levels of serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF).ResultsThe levels of serum VEGF, bFGF, and EGF increased rapidly at 11 days after operation, and the expression levels of the factors at 11, 18, 28, and 35 days were significantly higher than those before operation (P<0.05). The expression level of PDGF increased suddenly at 18 days after operation, and the expression level of PDGF at 18, 28, and 35 days was significantly higher than that before operation (P<0.05).ConclusionTransverse tibial bone transport for the treatment of diabetic foot can significantly increase the expression of serum angiogenesis-related growth factors in early stage, which may be the mechanism of promoting the healing of diabetic foot wounds.
