[The attempt of clinical classification of the complicated diabetic foot syndrome].

The experience of surgical treatment of 1532 patients with the complicated forms of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) was analyzed. The original clinical classification of the complicated DFS was suggested. The classification considered the clinical form (symbol "C"), anatomic localization (symbol "Z") and etiology (symbol "E"). The classification allows to define surgical tactics depending on concrete complications of the DFS, frames conditions for the unification and uniform registration of the form and severity of the disease and volume of the surgical treatment.
