[Foot problems in the elderly].
Foot problems in the geriatric patient are multiple and sometimes complex. The choices in treatment are frequently restricted because of contraindications for surgery. Common foot problems are common in the elderly patient, too, but in addition there is a specific pathology of this group of patients. Inexpensive, but institutionalized routine foot care is an essential medical need of the elderly to improve the quality of life.
