Abstract
One hundred hospitalized diabetics were examined for the presence of cutaneous manifestations. Sixty eight of them had dermatoses associated with diabetes or its therapy. Six of them presented with skin complaints at admission. The incidence of various dermatoses was comparable with other published works except that there was a relatively high incidence of hypermelanosis (8%) and an absence of cutaneous side effects of oral hypoglycaemics. Finger pebbling (15.7%) as a new marker of diabetes is also discussed
