ABSTRACT

The objective of our study is to evaluate the morbidity of diabetic neuropathy, during peri operative time in a general surgery unit. This retrospective study was conducted between January 2002 and December 2004 in the Military Hospital Mohamed V in Rabat. All diabetic patients with a diabetic neuropathy and who had surgery were included [164 upon 516 diabetic patients]; mean age is 54.6 +/- 10.2 years and type 1 diabetes was present in 56% of the cases. The diagnosis of diabetic neuropathy was based on a careful clinical examination. A distal and symmetrical neuropathy was found in 91% of the cases; a proximal and symmetrical neuropathy in 10% and a diabetic foot in 68%. In these patients, neuropathy was associated to hypertension [29%], to renal insufficiency [9%] and to cardiac disease 4%. Diabetic neuropathy was significantly associated to a higher hospitalization duration [p<0.05] and to a higher postoperative incidence of infection
