According to available medical reports, over 10% of diabetic patients will develop foot ulcers during their lifetimes. This condition still remains great challenges to many clinicians. Various mechanisms may explain treatment-resistant entity. Treatment varies widely, relying on the severity of the ulceration as well as the presence of infection or ischemia. However, the most important things to keep in mind should consist of the following: 1) appropriate debridement; 2) off-loading of pressure; 3) effective control of infection; 4) local wound care strategy; 5) timely reconstructive surgery. The ideal flap for diabetic foot reconstruction should provide a well-vascularized tissue to control infection, adequate contour for footwear, durability, and solid anchorage to resist shearing forces. A thorough assessment of patient's general condition and voluntary motivation of the patient should be warranted to prevent any sort of postoperative recurrence.
