A prospective randomized double-blind clinical trial design will be used in a cohort of sixty
patients of both genders, physical status American Society of Anaesthesiologist (ASA) I and
II who will undergo lower limb amputation, will be enrolled into the present study. Patients
will divided randomly into two equal groups: Epidural Bupivacain-Calcitonin and fentanyl (BC)
Group and Bupivacain- fentanyl (BF) Group, comprising of 30 patients each.

Hyperbaric oxygen for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers: a systematic review.
Abstract: A systematic review of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to assess the additional value of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in promoting the healing of diabetic foot ulcers and preventing amputations was performed. MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library...
Complications of the diabetic foot.
Abstract: The diabetic foot is at high risk for complications because of its role in ambulation. Peripheral neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease can lead to chronic foot ulcers, which are at high risk for infection, in part attributable to areas of high pressure...
