Abstract:

Diabetic neuropathy is the primary complication that the most likely cause of diabetes-related morbidity and mortality. It is one of the most important factors in the emergence planting ulceration in diabetic patients. Prevention of this complication is difficult, particularly because there is no reliable method to test the sensitivity of the plant. It supports the theory that the posterior tibial nerve is at risk of developing chronic compression due to edema. This hypothesis was supported by a comparative study conducted by Lee and Damien M. Dauphinée Doohi, using ultrasound on the ankle, resulting in the conclusion that the diameter of the tibial nerve in diabetic patients with neuropathy was significantly higher than in diabetic patients that did not have polyneuropathy (24.0 vs. 12 mm square). Solution in trying to resolve this problem belongs compression AL Dellon, who noted that after carpal tunnel decompression at hand (which belongs to George Phalen, MD, of Cleveland, Ohio in 1950) major improvements in the sensitivity of fingers hand, decided to try to make the same type of foot surgery and diabetic patients.
