title: Bullosis diabeticorum: case report and review.
abstract: Assessment of the foot is an essential component of clinical examination of the patient with diabetes. As the prevalence of diabetes in New Zealand is increasing rapidly, a growing number of clinical encounters will involve individuals with diabetes. We present a case of bullosis diabeticorum, review the important clinical features and propose a management strategy for this rare dermatological complication of longstanding diabetes.
