If a diabetic patient has impaired angiogenesis after a foot ulcer forms, which consequence follows regarding wound healing?

💡 Explanation

Impaired angiogenesis reduces blood supply; therefore, granulation tissue, which depends on new blood vessel formation, is delayed. Because angiogenesis is suppressed, rather than forming new blood vessels to facilitate repair, granulation tissue formation suffers, prolonging the healing process.
