Abstract
The development of skin manifestations of diabetes affects up to two thirds of patients with both types 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus. Cutaneous manifestations of diabetes occur because of the microvascular complications of diabetes, impaired wound healing, and other yet undetermined mechanisms. This article summarizes the most frequent skin findings in patients with diabetes, and proposes treatment of some complications.Entities:
