No Pathonomonic Skin lesion in Diabetes
Cutaneous Manifestations of
Diabetes
30% incidence cutaneous disorders ADA
70% during course of illness
15% ulceration
Cutaneous Manifestations of
Diabetes
Hyperglycaemia
Neuropathy
Impaired host response
Microvascular angiopathies with failure of the
microcircutation to meet the metabolic requirements
of the skin
Cutaneous Manifestations of
Diabetes
• Common disorders that affect non-diabetes
• Those classically associated with diabetes / reflect
microangiopathy
• Lesions indicating poor control
• Effect of insulin resistance
• Adverse effects of therapy for diabetes
• Skin changes as a result complications of diabetes
• Other associated autoimmune disorders

Acanthosis Nigricans
8 types
Obesity – Acanthosis Nigricans
Kahn 1975
association with
insulin resistance
Acanthosis Nigricans
Mechanism?
High insulin concentrations stimulate
insulin–like growth factor receptors on
keratinocytes promoting epidermal cell proliferation
HAIR-AN Syndrome
• HyperAndrogenism
• Insulin Resistance
• Acanthosis Nigricans
HAIR-AN Syndrome
Type A I R
Mutation gene that encodes the
insulin receptor
Tall black young females
Severe acanthosis nigricans
begins infancy and early childhood

of the pancreatic islet cells
Mechanism?
Sustained gluconeogenesis from high glucagon levels leads to
amino acid deficiency,epidermal protein deficiency and necrolysis
