title: Bleeding complications in the uremic patient.
abstract: Many patients seen in podiatric medicine may have some degree of renal disease. An often neglected and unrecognized complication of renal disease may be abnormal bleeding. Presented in this paper is a review of the etiologies and treatment of uremia-induced bleeding complications. Included is a case presentation in which the authors discuss a patient in acute renal failure who developed postoperative bleeding following an incision and drainage for a diabetic foot infection.
