Resumo

Skin ulcers etiology is varied and often even unknown. There is usually a circulatory pathology, venous or arterial. They stand out for their impact, the vascular and diabetic lower extremity wounds as well as pressure ulcers. Infection is the most common skin ulcer complication, and is characterized by the presence of both local and systemic clinical signs. Treatment of diabetic foot ulcer requires a multidisciplinary management, including local treatments with appropriate culture samples, antibiotic therapy according to the stratification of the severity and patient history, and a surgical evaluation. After obtaining the culture results, antimicrobial therapy should be directed, with narrower spectrum agents.
