Here is another one- Buerger’s Disease- Did I miss this one too? I have been busy so please forgive me if this has already been published...

This has quite the parallel to the first-hand report that we read this week on our website from the individual with CLI. Hmmm... GLTA

"The thirty-six years old patient, who was diagnosed with Buerger’s disease approximately four years ago,displayed painful,non-healing ulcers on his foot. Available medical interventions, including revascularization procedures, were unsuccessful in restoring sufficient blood flow to the affected limb and the patient progressed to a pre-amputation stage.Following his physician’s request and regulatory approval, patient was given a compassionate use treatment of PLX-PAD cells, consisting of two administration to the foot and calf,approximately eight weeks apart.“The patient was in an advanced stage of Buerger’s disease and was facing amputation,” said Prof Boris Yoffe, Department of General and Vascular Surgery at the Barzilai Medical Center in Israel. “Following treatment with PLX-PAD cells,we observed demonstrable restoration of the patient’s peripheral blood supply to the injured limb,which was manifested by a significant improvement in color, warmth, wound size and reduced pain. One year following treatment, the wound is now fully closed, the patient was able to resume normal activities and amputation was prevented"
