The diabetic foot

Current Problems in Surgery, 2016
A comprehensive program focused on foot-specific patient education, skin and nail care, and protective footwear lowers the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers and lower extremity amputations. Orthopedic or podiatric consultations are warranted for those “at risk” or with foot ulcers.

The Diabetic Foot

Orthopedics, 1987
ABSTRACT: Amputation of the lower extremity is more frequent in diabetic patients than in the general population. Causative factors include foot deformities, neuropathy, dysvascularity, infection, and gangrene. A grading and treatment program is outlined for aid in treating the lesions that develop in these feet.

THE DIABETIC FOOT

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, 2000
Foot complications in diabetics often lead to amputation. Ulceration is the most common complication in the diabetic forefoot and underlies more than 90% of cases of pedal osteomyelitis. The diagnosis of osteomyelitis is, nevertheless, difficult, and imaging is an important part of the work‐up.

Management of the diabetic foot

Seminars in Vascular Surgery, 2022
The increasing prevalence of diabatic foot ulcers (DFUs) is not only costly, but carries a large mortality burden. In this article, we discuss important traditional concepts in the management of DFUs and elaborate on how new technologies have expanded our ability to treat DFUs effectively.

The Diabetic Foot

Angiology, 1976
Diabetic foot problems are common and result in multiple and prolonged hospitalizations, which often lead to amputation. While peripheral vascular dis ease and neuropathy are not totally preventable with current forms of therapy, many of the foot lesions resulting from these complications can be prevented by patient education and prophylactic foot care.
