Abstract
Skin disorders are common in diabetes, affecting both patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. These cutaneous manifestations can be classified into three categories: dermatoses associated with the presence of diabetes, cutaneous complications of diabetes (acute and chronic) and dermatoses linked to antidiabetic treatments. These conditions vary considerably in terms of severity (from insignificant cosmetic problems to life-threatening) and prevalence (from relatively frequent to rare). Despite the high prevalence of diabetes and associated skin disorders, the dermatological manifestations of diabetes are generally neglected and often under-diagnosed. Failure to diagnose and treat skin disorders at an early stage can lead to clinical worsening, whereas early detection and treatment can reduce the risk of serious complications.
