ABSTRACT
Emergencies that involve the foot in diabetic patients are a very common cause of morbidity. Ischemia is of prime importance but, in addition, neuropathy (with hypoesthesia) and sepsis are factors. Infections may follow minor trauma, or may be secondary, either to a long-standing ulcer or to an area of gangrene. The major importance of chronic ulcers of the feet, is that they are a portal of entry for infection. All these considerations are described in the article, with special considerations to the shoes employed and the stay.
