  • INTRODUCTIONDiabetic foot complications are the most common cause of nontraumatic lower extremity amputations in the industrialized world.The risk of lower extremity amputation is 15 to 46 times higher (Lavery LA, 1996; Armstrong DG, 1997). The most common risk factors for ulcer formation include diabetic neuropathy, structural foot deformity and peripheral arterial occlusive disease (Edmonds ME, 1986; NIH, 1987,IDSA,2012). They can be reduced through appropriate prevention and manageme

  • INFECTIONIndividuals with DM have a greater frequency and severity of infection. Reasons: abnormalities in cell-mediated immunity and phagocyte function diminished vascularization

    Hyperglycaemia aids the colonization and growth of a variety of organisms (Candida and other fungal species). Common pathogens:

  • The patient is a 56-year-old male with type 2 diabetes, with complete neuropathy. The ulcer resulted from a 6-hour scuba-diving excursion. Sand got into his scuba boot and worked like sand paper. The ulcer does not probe to bone. There is a pink granulation tissue base with no evidence of cellulitis or purulent drainage.

  • THE ROLE OF FOSFOMYCINFosfomycin is an antibiotic, first discovered in 1967 in a culture of Streptomyces fradiae which was isolated from a Spanish soil sample.

    In animal studies, no evidence of fosfomycins processing antigenicity.

    Fosfomycin for intra venous use is very effective against infections due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus sp., Serratia marcescens, and multi drug resistant strains of Staphylococcus sp. and E coli (Woodruff, et all 1977)

  • FOSFOMYCIN & DIABETESFosfomycin exhibits good and similar penetration into the fluid in the interstitial space in inflamed and non inflamed soft tissue (Legat et al, 2003)

    Siegl et al (2004) shown that combining Fosfomycin witn Ciprofloxacin, for at least 14 days, showed excellent results in the treatment of severe diabetic foot infections.

  • Objectives: Appropriate antimicrobial therapy and surgical intervention may be required in diabeticpatients presenting with severe bacterial foot infection. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) agents such as fosfomycin are increasingly in demand because of recent concern regardingvancomycin and daptomycin efficacy and constant use. Intravenous fosfomycin is approved for thetherapy of severe soft tissue infections and is highly active against methicillin-susceptible S. aureusand MRSA. In the present study we investigated fosfomycins ability to penetrate bone tissue indiabetic patients suffering from severe bacterial foot infection.

    Patients and methods: The well established microdialysis technique was utilized to determine fosfomycinconcentrations in metatarsal bone in nine patients scheduled for partial bone resection due to bacterialfoot infection and osteomyelitis. Plasma and unaffected subcutaneous adipose tissue served asreference compartments.

    Results: After a single intravenous dose of approximately 100 mg of fosfomycin per kg of body weight,the mean Cmax, Tmax and AUC06 for bone were 96.4 mg/L, 3.9 h and 330.0 mg . h/L, respectively. Thedegree of tissue penetration as determined by the ratios of the AUC06 for bone to plasma and forsubcutaneous adipose tissue to plasma were 0.43+0.04 and 0.76+0.05, respectively.Conclusions: On the basis of relevant pharmacokineticpharmacodynamic indices, it seems that fosfomycinis an effective antibiotic for the treatment of deep-seated diabetic foot infections with osseousmatrix involvement.

  • PREVENTIONEducationFoot careTherapeutic shoeReduction of plantar pressure (off loading)Surgery

  • GOOD FOOT CARE

  • Neuropathic Ulcer: Diabetes induced neuropathy led to development of the ulcer. The Q-tip easily passes to the level of the underlying bone, clinical evidence of osteomyelitis. Incidentally, this is not painful to the patient as he is insensate.

  • Neuropathic Ulcer: Severe diabetes induced neuropathy has resulted in Charcot foot deformity.This ultimately lead to large painless ulcer on bottom of foot. Lateral x-ray demonstrates marked soft tissue swelling as well as boney destruction caused by underlying osteomyelitis.
