dc.description | Diabetic foot is one of the long-lasting complications of diabetes, resulting from changes in both the structure and function of the foot, leading to associated ulcers. It is estimated that the mortality related to a diabetic foot ulcer is 5% by the end of the first year and 42% by the end of five years. Often, an initial event that could be avoided can be traced, such as a minor wound that causes a skin lesion. Many of these situations can be prevented through early identification and management, which is necessary in up to 20% of ulcers. Carrying out regular checkups to detect neurological and circulatory problems in the lower extremities, as well as careful observation of the feet, can considerably reduce related complications. The adequate treatment of diabetic foot ulcers is complicated and entails significant use of resources, representing a high cost for the health system. This clinical case addresses aspects of the pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and management of this condition. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El pie diabético es una de las complicaciones duraderas de la diabetes, resultante de cambios tanto en la estructura como en la función del pie, lo que da lugar a las úlceras asociadas. Se estima que la mortalidad relacionada con una úlcera de pie diabético es del 5 % al finalizar el primer año y del 42 % al alcanzar los cinco años. Frecuentemente, se puede rastrear un acontecimiento inicial que podría evitarse, como una herida menor que genera una lesión en la piel. Muchas de estas situaciones se pueden prevenir mediante la identificación y el manejo oportunos, lo cual es necesario en hasta el 20 % de las úlceras. La realización de controles regulares para detectar problemas neurológicos y circulatorios en las extremidades inferiores, así como una observación cuidadosa de los pies, puede disminuir considerablemente las complicaciones relacionadas. El tratamiento adecuado de las úlceras en el pie diabético es complicado y conlleva un uso significativo de recursos, representando un costo elevado para el sistema de salud. Este caso clínico aborda aspectos de la fisiopatología, epidemiología, manifestaciones clínicas, diagnóstico y manejo de esta condición. | es_ES |
