ABSTRACT
iabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglucemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. The chronic hyperglucemia of diabetes is associated with long-term damage, failure of various organs and the skin is not the exception. It is estimated that 2 to 8.8 percent of the population in Mexico have DM, of whom 90 percent have diabetes type 2. Al least 30% of persons with diabetes have some type cutaneous involvement during the course of their chronic disease. This review classifies the cutaneous findings in diabetes mellitus into four categories: (1) dermatosis in which diabetes is a determinant factor; (2) cutaneous infections; (3) other frequent associations and (4) treatment complications.
