Abstract

The presence of osteomyelitis in the diabetic foot presents a significant challenge in terms of healing, increasing the risk of serious complications and potentially leading to amputations. Antibiotic bone cement has emerged as a promising alternative, offering favorable results in eradicating infections, accelerating healing, and preserving limbs. Its mechanism of action combines local and sustained release of antibiotics, filling of bone cavities, and stimulation of bone growth. The present paper is bibliographic review about studies that evaluate its efficiency in combination with other therapies, showing positive results in the eradication of infections, the reduction of hospitalization time and the preservation of limbs. Bone cement has been effective in treating forefoot infections and ulcers in Charcot‘s foot. In addition, it has proven to be an effective complement in surgery for the reconstruction and treatment of osteomyelitis.
