Abstract: Diabetic lower extremity lesions (DLEL) occur as lower extremity pain, sensory and motor disturbance, ulcers, destruction of deep tissues and subsequent infections related to lower extremity vasculopathy and neuropathy in diabetes. The disease affects multiple organ systems, leading to complicated pathogenesis and difficulty in treatment. This article reviews the pathogenesis and treatments of diabetic lower extremity lesions, hoping to expand new ideas for the multi-disciplinary treatment of DLEL.
