The research indicates inconsistent support for below-the-knee artery involvement correlating with foot ulcer locations in angiosomes. While aiding vascular comprehension, the angiosome concept may not fully elucidate lower limb vascular complexities and ulcer genesis. Factors like collateral circulation should be noticed to understanding ulcer localization and severity, extending beyond angiosomal arterial supply.
