Abstract
The foot is a complex region of the body that includes the vascular, neurologic, dermatologic, and musculoskeletal organ systems. This article addresses each of these systems and the common maladies that affect them, with a view toward common presentations, evaluation, differential diagnoses, treatment alternatives, and guidelines for proper referral. Finally, a section of the article is devoted to the prevention and treatment of lower extremity problems unique to patients with diabetes.
