Abstract
Background and aims: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), affecting around 25% of individuals with DM. Primary treatment of a DFU involves wound off-loading, surgical debridement, dressings to provide a moist wound environment, vascular assessment, and appropriate antibiotics through a multidisciplinary approach. Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is considered an innovative tool for the management of DFUs. The utilization of 3D printing technology in the treatment of DFU involves the modernization of traditional methods and the exploration of new techniques. This review discusses recent advancements in 3D printing technology for the application of DFU care, and the development of personalized interventions for the treatment of DFUs.
Methods: We searched the electronic database for the years 2019-2024. Studies related to the use of 3D printing technology in Diabetic foot were included.
Results: A total of 25 identified articles based on database search and citation network analysis. After removing duplicates, 18 articles remained, and three articles that did not meet the inclusion criteria were removed after reading the title/abstract. A total of 97 relevant articles were included during the reading of references. In total, 112 articles were included.
Conclusion: 3D printing technology offers unparalleled advantages, particularly in the realm of personalized treatment. The amalgamation of traditional treatment methods with 3D printing has yielded favorable outcomes in decelerating the progression of DFUs and facilitating wound healing. However, there is a limited body of research regarding the utilization of 3D printing technology in the domain of DFUs.
期刊介绍：
The translation of new discoveries in medicine to clinical routine has never been easy. During the second half of the last century, thanks to the progress in chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology, we have seen the development and the application of a large number of drugs and devices aimed at the treatment of symptoms, blocking unwanted pathways and, in the case of infectious diseases, fighting the micro-organisms responsible. However, we are facing, today, a dramatic change in the therapeutic approach to pathologies and diseases. Indeed, the challenge of the present and the next decade is to fully restore the physiological status of the diseased organism and to completely regenerate tissue and organs when they are so seriously affected that treatments cannot be limited to the repression of symptoms or to the repair of damage. This is being made possible thanks to the major developments made in basic cell and molecular biology, including stem cell science, growth factor delivery, gene isolation and transfection, the advances in bioengineering and nanotechnology, including development of new biomaterials, biofabrication technologies and use of bioreactors, and the big improvements in diagnostic tools and imaging of cells, tissues and organs.
In today`s world, an enhancement of communication between multidisciplinary experts, together with the promotion of joint projects and close collaborations among scientists, engineers, industry people, regulatory agencies and physicians are absolute requirements for the success of any attempt to develop and clinically apply a new biological therapy or an innovative device involving the collective use of biomaterials, cells and/or bioactive molecules. “Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology” aspires to be a forum for all people involved in the process by bridging the gap too often existing between a discovery in the basic sciences and its clinical application.
