  • Title: Ankle fractures in diabetics.
    Author: Parikh M, Slater N, Walker C.
    Journal: J R Coll Surg Edinb; 1998 Dec; 43(6):415-6. PubMed ID: 9990793.
    Abstract:
    Ankle fractures are common and good results are expected. Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus is also common, and long-standing disease is associated with peripheral neuropathy. A trauma unit will inevitably receive patients with both problems. We describe two salutary lessons and suggest how our experience with diabetic neuroarthropathy might be avoided.
