This is what can happen in severe cases of poorly managed diabetes! In this video we see a guillotine amputation on a severely ill patient with progressive diabetic neuropathy. Over time, distal nerves of patients with diabetes can degenerate, leading to loss of sensation in the affected limbs. These limbs can become ulcerated and infected if left without proper medical attention. If the condition becomes severe enough, amputation can be required. Amputation is usually performed once the damage reaches the bone, and it is done to prevent sepsis and diffuse infection. . ❤️Love to TAG & SHARE our pages: @med.case @med.bit @med.points @med.learn @med.set @med.base @med.index @med.key @med.guide @med.docs #med #nursingschool #medicalhumor #medstudentlife #medicalstudent #physicianassistant #becomingadoctor #medicalmemes #nursing #nursinghumor #futuredoctor #futurenurse #paramedics #dentalstudent #dental https://www.instagram.com/p/BuiV0WOltYl8FRycb7FZE7qGMEjt8_vrtNPOhY0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=og2smw51rd1k
