Of them patients with osteomyelitis and osteoarthritis of phalanges of fingers, metatarsal bones, interphalangeal and metatarsal-phalangeal joints-112 people, with osteomyelitis and osteoarthritis of bones and joints of tarsal, talus, talo-cuboid, talon-cuboid, talon-palate-92. Patients were subjected to correction of sugar reducing therapy, unloading of feet, necrsequestrectomy according to the indications, differential local treatment based on the stages of wound process, sowing of wound contents for microflora according to all microbiological world standards.  Differential approach, adequate surgical treatment, analysis of wound content for microflora, and prescription of antibacterial agents based on the data of wound content culture allowed to reduce the number of complications, up to high amputation and preserve the patients' limb bearing capacity.
