AG, 52/M, diabetic, with an infected wound due to an infected metal implant in his leg.

This patient was previously operated on due to an open fracture in his ankle. The fracture eventually healed but his implants became infected after a year. Removal of implants and debridement was done but the infection persisted and the surgical wound became larger and would not heal. He was then advised repeat debridement as an in-patient in the operating room.

Seeking second opinion at Hilom, we did ultrasound assisted debridement with Prontosan every treatment session and wound healing was achieved in 4 months.
