Understanding the

Pathophysiology of Cutaneous
Manifestations in Diabetes Mellitus
Introduction

This presentation aims to explore the

pathophysiology of cutaneous
manifestations in Diabetes Mellitus.
Understanding these manifestations is
crucial for comprehensive diabetes care.
Diabetes Mellitus Overview

Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic

disorder characterized by hyperglycemia
due to insulin resistance or deficiency. Skin
manifestations are common in diabetes,
including dermopathy, necrobiosis
lipoidica, and diabetic bullae.
The pathophysiology of cutaneous manifestations in Diabetes Mellitus involves
microvascular and macrovascular complications, neuropathy, and immune
dysfunction. These factors contribute to the development of various skin
conditions.
Common Cutaneous Manifestations

Common cutaneous manifestations in

Diabetes Mellitus include diabetic
dermopathy, characterized by brown,
atrophic patches; necrobiosis lipoidica,
presenting as yellow plaques; and diabetic
bullae, which are large, tense blisters.
Management Strategies
Management of cutaneous manifestations
in Diabetes Mellitus involves glycemic
control, wound care, and dermatological
interventions. Early detection and
treatment are essential to prevent
complications.
Conclusion

Understanding the pathophysiology of

cutaneous manifestations in Diabetes
Mellitus is crucial for effective
management and prevention of
complications. Comprehensive care
should address both the systemic and
dermatological aspects of the disease.
