Limb Salvage Q & A

What is limb salvage?

Limb preservation at Skylake Medical Associates embodies our commitment to safeguarding your foot or leg from the dire need for amputation through proactive and specialized interventions.
Ensuring adequate blood supply to your lower limbs is paramount for their optimal function and health. Our limb preservation strategies focus on reinstating proper blood flow to your feet and legs, essential for sustaining their vitality.

Why Limb Preservation?

Limb preservation becomes necessary when dealing with severe infections, such as foot or ankle ulcers. These ulcers, stemming from tissue breakdown, often result from compromised blood circulation and fluid retention in the lower limb, with peripheral neuropathy exacerbating the risk of ulcer formation.

Skylake Medical Associates adeptly diagnoses and manages various ulcer types, including arterial, venous, diabetic, and lymphatic ulcers. Despite diligent treatment, ulcers may linger or worsen, leading to potential complications like infection and gangrene. Our specialized wound care focuses on facilitating ulcer healing and averting further deterioration.

Limb Preservation Procedures

Our limb preservation protocols are geared towards addressing underlying circulatory issues before they escalate into grave complications. These interventions may encompass:
In instances of bone infection, antibiotic therapy or surgical intervention may be warranted to mitigate the risk of further complications. Partial toe or foot amputation may be considered in select cases to optimize blood flow and preserve limb function.
