An Amazing Cure
Authors: Wong WKR, Ng KL.
Abstract
We reported previously that topical treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU) with authentic human epidermal growth factor (rEGF) in addition to debridement surgery was over 50% more efficient than the latter operation employed alone. In this communication, using the facile topical protocol, we further demonstrate that rEGF is not only capable of healing DFU, but was also shown to be effective in bringing a traumatic wound, which was caused by the amputation of the three larger toes of an ulcerated foot, to complete healing.
