Non-healing neuropathic heel ulcer provides a challenge to salvage the limb from a below-knee amputation. Total calcanectomy can prove a reliable option for limb salvage. Given a well-designed orthosis, patients with total calcanectomy do well at any age. We present two case examples of non-healing neuropathic heel ulcers with chronic osteomyelitis of the calcaneus, which were salvaged with total calcanectomy and returned to all activities of daily living.
难愈合的神经性足跟溃疡对避免膝下截肢以挽救肢体构成了挑战。全跟骨切除术可证明是挽救肢体的可靠选择。鉴于设计良好的矫形器，接受全跟骨切除术的患者在任何年龄都恢复良好。我们展示了两例伴有跟骨慢性骨髓炎的难愈合神经性足跟溃疡病例，通过全跟骨切除术得以挽救，并恢复了所有日常生活活动。
