Wound healing complications in patients with and without systemic diseases following hallux valgus surgery

Abstract: There are many defined risk factors for wound healing. Comorbidities and their treatment are identified to be one of them. The aim of this study is to verify whether there are significant differences in wound healing between patients with and without systemic diseases, who underwent hallux valgus correction with Scarf osteotomy. A total of 155 consecutive patients were included into this prospective study. All of the patients underwent Scarf osteotomy for hallux valgus correction. In 60,6% of patients comorbid… Show more

“…Obesity and the associated co-morbidities are crucial in management and therapeutic purposes [16]. There are many other factors, including patients' factors like age, Body mass index(BMI), comorbidities, medications, smoking, alcohol abuse, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs), and nutritional status [17]. Systemic diseases impair wound healing, including diabetes mellitus rheumatoid arthritis and its treatment: use of steroids, disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD), and biological therapy, thyroxine hormone substitution [18][19][20][21].…”

“…While thyroid hormone may be regulated differently in mammals than in amphibians, studies of hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism have demonstrated that thyroid hormone nonetheless plays a role in mammalian wound healing. Hypothyroidism is most often associated with increased healing complications in both animal models and in humans 69 , although there is disagreement about whether this association with wound healing complications occurs among thyroxine-supplemented hypothyroid patients 70 , 71 . Discrepancies over whether hypothyroidism and thyroxine-supplementation influence wound healing may be resolved through repeated studies with increased sample sizes.…”

“…Milczarek et al 19 found that obese patient achieved significantly lower American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores compared to the normal-weight group, but their pain and satisfaction ratings were comparable. Kromuszczyńska et al 16 assessed functional outcome 6 months after scarf osteotomy and found no significant difference in AOFAS scores between patients with or without comorbidities.…”
