Abstract

This case describes a minimally invasive implantation of cryopreserved human adipose tissue allograft (CAT) in a diabetic neuropathic patient with a pre-ulcerative plantar lesion. No re-ulceration or adverse events have occurred out to 9 months. CAT provides healthcare providers with an option to manage patients at risk for plantar ulcers.
