This study aims to further evaluate the efficacy of TCC in a large cohort, including patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).MethodsThis was a retrospective analysis of patients with DFUs who underwent TCC from 2017 to 2021. PAD was defined as absence of pedal pulse or ABI <0.9. Demographic data, DFU characteristics, and peripheral arterial intervention were evaluated. Outcomes included complete healing, healing time, and rate of major amputation. Subgroup analysis was performed on patients undergoing peripheral intervention.Results152 patients underwent TCC. Mean age was 58.8 ± 12.1 years, 79.6% were male, and 26.3% had PAD. Mean DFU size was 8.27 ± 9.9 cm², with mean depth 0.61 ± 0.49 cm. 112 patients had palpable pedal pulses on the affected extremity (73.7%). Average ABI was 1.12 ± 0.22 (n = 90). Complete healing was observed in 122 (80.3%) patients, with average healing time of 81.5 ± 57.1 days. Thirteen (8.6%) patients eventually required amputation (3 major). When compared to patients with healed DFUs, those without healing had higher rates of amputation (39.1% vs 3.1%, <i>P</i> < .001), intervention (43.4% vs 17.8%, <i>P</i> = .006), and noncompliance (39.1% vs 20.2%, <i>P</i> = .046).
