Bullosis diabeticorum is a rare complication of long-standing diabetes mellitus. Bullous lesions, which appear like burn-induced blisters, occur suddenly without trauma in the feet.

Several theories exist as to causal and contributory factors related to this cutaneous manifestation of diabetes mellitus.
