The aim of this study was to compare outcomes between patients with diabetic foot soft-tissue infection and osteomyelitis. Medical records of patients with diabetic foot infection involving either soft-tissue (STI) or bone (OM) were retrospectively reviewed. Diagnosis was determined by bone culture, bone histopathology or imaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT/CT). Patient outcomes were recorded up to 1 year after admission.Aim
