Core Tip	Effective management of wound complications following transtibial amputation in diabetic patients relies on targeted risk factor mitigation. Maintaining optimal glycemic control, particularly by managing preoperative elevated hemoglobin A1c levels, can significantly reduce complications. Additionally, personalized postoperative care, especially for immunocompromised patients such as those with a history of kidney transplantation, is crucial. A multidisciplinary approach involving endocrinologists, surgeons, and wound care specialists is recommended to optimize patient outcomes and minimize healthcare burdens. Future research should focus on validating these strategies through prospective studies to enhance clinical practice in diabetic foot care.
