The three main pathologies that are associated with diabetic foot syndrome (DFS) are diabetic peripheral neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease and/or infection.1 The syndrome also encompasses complications like Charcot neuroarthropathy, osteomyelitis, foot ulceration and may lead to the most feared outcome, amputation.1 The prevalence of foot ulcers is reported to range from 4.0% to10.0% in patients with diabetes, which suggests that lifetime risk of developing foot ulcers in these patients may be as high as 25.0%.2-4 Of all the non-traumatic lower limb amputations, 8 out of 10 amputations are done in patients with diabetes, out of which 85.0% follow a foot ulcer.2,5,6
