ABSTRACT
Although ischemia in the distal areas of the limbs due to vascular occlusion is a well recognized systemic condition in patients who have diabetes, infarction of skeletal muscle, not associated with gangrene, is exceedingly rare and the paucity of published cases focused on this condition makes it difficult to determine the most appropriate methods of diagnosis and treatment. The authors encountered a case of diabetic muscle infarction with exquisitely tender swelling on the anteromedial aspect of thigh and herein report the diagnostic work-up and treatment performed on the patient.
